Re: Front Panel Audio

Hi skallz,

The 'AUX IN' header on your sound card is like the 'CD_IN1' header on your motherboard. They are used for connecting your optical drive to the sound circuitry via an analogue cable so that you can play audio. This method is analogue - modern systems don't use this method and can instead transfer audio data over the main IDE/SATA interface, so this cable is no longer required, although it won't do any harm if it is installed.
