Hello,
ASRock's motherboard 939A790GMH mentions the following in the quick
installation guide/manual:

GND RESET#
Antec 1200's reset switch connector has a brown and a white cable.
I have some question about this:
1. What is "RESET#" ? (I can understand "ground" but "RESET#" ???)
2. How does a reset switch work ? Does it "cut power" ? Does it make all the
electricity flow away via ground or something ?
3. How to connect the reset switch ? Should the brown wire go to GND or vice
versa ?
I also have a theory how the motherboard might get damage if it's not
grounded:
The gnd cables and/or the reset switch somehow makes it possible for the
chasis voltage and low ampere to briefly flow back into the motherboard,
this probably weakens the electronics, if this is done often enough
motherboard death would occur, therefore it would be best to ground the PC
so this can't happen ?!?
4. Last question, is this theory possible ?
Bye,
Skybuck.
