OK, so I sleeved my PSU tonight (what a PITA!), and hooked up my front audio. Unfortunately, now there's no sound card detected at all, so I know I hooked things up wrong. As is the norm, the pins listed on my motherboard and the pieces I have to attach are named completely differently, so I assume something is hooked up wrong.
FPOUT L and R are obviously the front outputs, and L RET and R RET are the rears. MIC connects to MIC, GRN to Ground, but here's where I assume I messed up... what's MIC-BIAS? I hooked it up to power because it's the only one I had left. I also have one labeled REF, which I have no idea what it is. There are 2 others but one is reserved and the other lacks a pin, so obviously not those.
What the hell is REF? Anybody see what I'm doing wrong?
