Please log in for more thread options question. The back of my CD-Rom drive has a 4-prong plug which is for the audio. The floppy drive also has one of these 4-prong plugs. What is it for? Bryan | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Please log in for more thread options The floppy drive's 4 prong connection is for power, your power-supply will have the appropriate connector...be sure to plug it in correctly! NOTE: it is not the same as the 4 prong outlet on your cdrom which you have correctly identified as audio (an will probably not be needed) | ||||||||||||||||||||||
