Well i've got all the parts to connect up, i fitted the processor and RAM fine, then started plugging in all the other bits.
I'm completely stumped with the fan on the side of the case though, as it's incompatible with my motherboard. The lead from it has three little pins on, but the place where the manual says it plugs into the motherboard is just completely flat with three metal dots. On my old motherboard it had a sticking up bit where it was obviously meant to be plugged in.
Have i bought the wrong motherboard or am i trying to install it wrong? Will my PC crash and burn if it doesnt have the side fan?
Edit:
Should it be be sys_fan or pwr_fan?
