ok, that means the two power LED conections have to go on pins 1 and 3.
Is there any kind of a picture in your motherboard manual?
What exactly is the model of your motherboard? Maybe someone here can try to help you interpet the diagrams/manual (if its downloadedable at least). | |

Well since you didnt say you have a problem with your switches, the power and reset, then leave those two alone. The only ones I would try switching and making sure they are on the correct pins are "Power LED" and "Hard drive activity lead." (should that be hard drive led?) Anyway, there are two wires for each led, usually one colored wire and one white wire. The colored wire usually goes on the positive pin (+) and the white wire goes on the negative pin. | |

You only have two leds right? So how do you have 6 wires? Should only be four. Disregard the power and reset switches for now.
Also to identify the positive led, on the little back connector that connects to the pins is a little arrow on either side of the connector.
I'm gonna take a look at your manual right now. Will be back. | |

The reason he has 6 is b/c he prolly hasnt hooked up the speaker wire (or maybe no reset button?). Although with some of those newer mobos maybe not. That particular mobo has case intrusion detection and stuff, so it could be for that 
This is from the asus website for your mobo. Just match stuff up and you should be good to go.
