Thank you msi for answering all 4 questions in 1 minute. Beats the 1, 000 10 minute videos that give no explanation.

It's 2019 for God's sake make these cables one standard plug already.

When I was installing a second USB port into my PC, I unplugged the JFP1 for more finger room. Thinking it was one, or at most, two connectors I suddenly realised in horror after unplugging, that it was, in fact, five individual connectors and that I didn't pay attention to which connector went where... I must have spent almost an 45 minutes (I'm really stubborn... And sure as hell don't -need- want no light-blue, antistatic, PC work gloves showin' me what I'm doing wrong) trying different connection combinations of those wires before I finally broke down, admitted defeat, and that I needed help... Thank you MSI light blue, antistatic, PC work gloves, you saved the day, and my sanity. Jam on.

I don't understand the dislikes at all, this vid is short, straight to the point and easy to follow. Thank you for this MSI, this was the scariest part of my build for me lol.

This tutorial is very short but very easy to understand. i tried other video tutorial that took me 10 minutes to watch and not understanding a thing. but this tutorial helps me. thank you

Sweet baby Jesus, this is the most perfect explainer video ever made.

Take note YouTubers at the lack of “hey what’s up?”, a 20 second stock intro animation, OR ANY TALKING WHATSOEVER

wow, finally a video link in the manual to help. really cool. agree with Joe. everyone needs to agree on a setup for one plug system. its not usb/data driven, its just power, make it a one plug system already.

Thank you so much I’m building my first pc and this is the only thing I couldn’t figure out.👍🙂

[RedDogByrd]

Thank you so very much. I only build or update my pc every five or six years & I always spend many minutes or hours researching this. You showed me in like one minute. You're the man or woman.

Thank you so much, I was building a computer for my dad for fathers day because he's wanted one. And, I didn't know why the PC wouldn't power on. So, I looked up "how to install power sw JFP1" and I got here. I'm posting and currently in the bios and my water cooling and ram and everything is working.

TYSM my PC just turned on for the first time in eight hours. I thought I was going to have to buy a new motherboard and at my age that is extremely hard to get the money for. Thank you so so much. I am so happy right now lol

[mbilalnaveed]

[prince-of-saiyan]

There is no other video as simple as this on YouTube

[bloglife]

I couldn’t turn on my pc because I had the front panels connected to the USB port on the motherboard. Thanks for showing the pc now works 🤠

I have to say I have 10 years old mainboard military class and it can still hold hands with current technologies and mainboards. Its the best of best omg. I cant believe. All in one it was my best decision.

[darthweenies]

Wow this actually helped and my computer runs just fine now. Thanks!

Glad this video is still up, my pc crapped out today and I went and pulled these out like a dumbass without looking where they went. I built this thing like 10 years ago, probably referenced this video back then as well.
