Got 7 wires in my case to connect to the motherboard from the front audio panel.
There are 8 pins free, ignoring a NC pin on the board.

The manual shows me pins for:

MIC2
AGND
MICPWR
+5VA
LINEOUT_R
LINEOUT_L
NC
BLINE_OUT_R
BLINE_OUT_L

The wires I have say:

R_RET
L_RET
MIC IN
MIC POWER
GROUND
R OUT
L OUT

The Mic Power ones are obvious but Im not so sure on the others.

i'm assuming, if there's a MIC2 pin, there should be a MIC one. check your MB manual again or look around. sorry i can't help any more than that. provide us with the MB model, maybe we can take a look and help more

Motherboard is an ASUS P4S800D
Think the manual is online, there isnt a 'MIC' pin. Should the +5VA pin be left free.
