Need some help with the turbo button connector. Photos: https://i.imgur.com/QuFDBZB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/VlLp6Hw.jpg As you can see, the case has a single connector for switch and led, and the motherboard has them separately. Do I just use a dupont wire to route this? And where is the positive …

The jumper monstrosity on the turbo display is probably around here somewhere: http://www.minuszerodegrees.net/led_speed_dis … eed_display.htm It sets the *displayed* frequencies when you push the turbo button.

So my turbo LED board is TD-38S, and I can't find a schematic for it. I don't need to reconfigure the jumpers as they should already be set to the right thing, but I don't understand how to connect its 3-pin header to the motherboard's 2 + 2 headers ("turbo switch" and "turbo LED", depicted in my …

Just connect center and one of the side pins of turbo switch to motherboard. The switch either connects left and center or right and center. Depending on which way you insert this 3pin wire to 2pin headers, the turbo has to be pushed in or out to be in turbo state. Just try and set it as you like. …

Here's how the turbo switch + LED display should be connected: The turbo button in the case normally has 2 sets of 3 wires coming out of it, one of them (probably the one labelled "TURBO SW" from your picture) is connected to the "TUB SW" header on your motherboard and is used to actually make the …

There are different types of LED speed displays. They can be driven directly by the switch and pass it to the motherboard, or they can be driven by the motherboard's LED output.

I think the extension limit is built into the drivers (catalyst a.i) try renaming the game exe to other opengl games like quake2.exe or mohaa.exe

Achievement unlocked, thanks for the tips!!! https://i.imgur.com/LPJsZmV.png Now the only thing I can't get to work is the HDD LED. It was plugged into the IDE expansion card when I got the computer, but it doesn't light up. There's a row of like 15 jumpers on the card, most of them closed, some …
