Hi,

 

The yellow and black wires obviously go to the 4 pin molex connector for power.  The tan cable goe to the motherboard USB port.  It appears the the 4 pin molex connector is not plugged into power. The 4 wire connector hanging below the 4 pin molex connector is also detached.

 

Did you replace the power supply?

Re: M8125x Personal Media bay cable Replacement

Hi,

 

I have a couple of questions.

 

Are you using the original 300 watt power supply?

 

It appears that there is a NVIDIA 460 installed in your PC.  Is that correct?
