Motherboard Speaker

[rk15000]

Hello Everyone,

You may call me old fashioned, but I am a user who likes to be able to hear a system POST, as well as any motherboard errors that occur.

I noticed that when I got my NZXT M59 case it did not include a case speaker.

My question is, can I just buy any old soundcard and load up some drivers? Or do I need the special 4 pin cables to plug into the front panel header on the motherboard? I have looked for these cables online, and I can't buy them anywhere?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Nothing wrong with wanting to hear those old fashioned beeps! After all, they do give a lot away when things aren't working

Thanks Everyone for your help!

Thank you for that site TheQuadFather. I can't believe that they sell those...the shipping is more than the actual cost. They should just give them out like candy, but of course nothing is free in this world . I ordered one and it should be coming in a couple of days.
