But they can be used one way or another. What you may have is a header for 4 pins, but only 3 pins on the motherboard side. (I recall it was 3 pins for a previous message.) In that case, the blocked hole on the plug goes where the pin is missing on the header. I am not sure what you have on the video board side. It is also a good idea to read your motherboard and video card manuals. In my case, I have it easy - there is a keyed 3 pin socket on the motherboard and a keyed 2 pin socket on the video card. As long as you have a proper cable, it is hard to get it wrong. :) Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
