I’m looking for the pinout for the FRONT PANEL connector from an HP vintage MS-7050 mainboard (originally out of a DX-5150) apparently the pinout of power, reset, HDDLED, etc is a closely guarded secret (since none of the manuals appears to address it) – all they do is refer you to a part order to get a special connector. I’ve got to believe somebody has mapped the pinout already. HELP!

I found this:

but the link to the HP site doesn’t go there. Maybe you can find it if you spend more time looking than I did. There’s this ebay lot:
http://cgi.ebay.com/LAPTOP-SCHEMATI…
that lists that motherboard. But it says they’re all laptop schematics. Maybe there’s a ms 7050 in a laptop or maybe the lot includes desktop motherboards as well. You may want to contact the seller. I guess there’s no guarantee either that the pin assignments will be specified.
Most OEM motherboards are based on a manufacturer supported board. If you can find that one, the pin assignments should be the same. You can scroll down to the socket 939 boards in the MSI archive page:

download the specs and see if they match your 7050.
