I am building a new system with an Asus A7V8X-X motherboard 
and the manual lists system panel items to be plugged in to a 
20-pin panel connector, but it doesn't explain what the polarity 
should be - i.e. which colored wires on which pins.  

I connected the wires as listed below, but have no way of 
knowing whether this is correct or not.  Can anybody clarify this? 

Top row of the 20-pin block, left to right: 
1 white : power LED : PLED + 
2
3 green : power LED : PLED - 
4
5
6
7 black : speaker +5V
8
9
10 red : speaker : speaker? 

Bottom row, left to right: 
11 labeled ide-led ... but I don't seem to have any wire to connect here??? 
12 labeled ide-led ...  "      "      "
13 
14 
15 
16 black : ATX Power switch : PWR  
17 red : ATX Power switch : Ground 
18 
19 white :  Reset 
20 purple : Ground 

Also, there is a hard disk connector  2-pin ide-led 
for which the top pin is labeled "-" and the bottom pin "+" ... 
and I have a white wire and an orange wire to connect here. 
Which color should go on the "-" and which on the "+"?
