Are they not the connectors for the case speaker?

Is this a new mobo or the one from your old rig?

My old Mobo it has weirs for speakers and mic already there ( I think its for USB on the front ) but ether way I cant hear no sound It worked before i striped my old ring and changed to this new one, windows starts everything, I Was proud cas I never changed things like that before its my first time swapping parts, and when everything started up I was like WOW I got it

but then I realized sound was not working can prob take sum pics of inside of mobo if it helps ?and take pic of speaker pin weirs if that helps

This may sound silly but; if you are using onboard sound. I'd recommend installing the mobo drivers first to see if it works. Normally the only time you need to physically connect speaker wires up is for the cases onboard speaker. This shouldn't make a difference, if you right click My Computer and go to Properties > Hardware tab > device manager, do you see anything with a yellow ! next to it? Something like Multimedia Audio controller, if so; you need to use the driver disk that came with your new mobo. Keep me posted...

If it's for the front panel audio then it's like this

Might be a longshot but on many mobo`s there is a tiny connector that is suppose to be there that more than one before you have removed because it is in the way when connecting secondary soundcables.

Take a peek in the manual to see where it belong if you remember to have removed such a tiny gadget, looks like a tiny fuse or similar !

Wait behind the line ..............................................................

Ok this looks like the one I need but which way m I looking at that ? the pins it self ?you right I should of written it down,

i think I found a problem ( where the sound block sits on mobo ) at the back where I connect weir for the sound ( that had lead going to it ) now it has that leed missing I left the audio and mic block in the old PC as my new case has one built in I get filling thats whats wrong with sound it needs leed for it I'm gonna try and remove the weirs where i connected and add them to back of the mobo where i think the should be,

I know it doesn't make seance the way I type but i think after tupla_s thread I know what to do fingers crossed

Look at the missing pin and you'll figure it out

and the FrontAudio and RearAudio pins are for example pins 5 and 6

5=R-Out
6=R-return

I think what you did was connect your case audio ports to the 3-pin header for the piezoelectric speaker. This was designed for nothing more than BIOS beep codes. The image Tupla posted is correct. There should be a separate block for your front audio and mic ports. These will usually have a couple of jumpers on them that need to be removed before you connect the case's front panel audio/mic connector.
