CABLES, WIRES, but not Cords ???
Do they plug into another hardware device? Do they plug into the back of the PC? Or internally, into the mobo? Most important of all, what do the END CONNECTORS look like? Round - Rectangular - Several Pins - Only a Jack - Etc. ???
If it is for the sound on the back of the computer, on many ATX mobos the sound jacks are ligned up vertically, three of them, from top to bottom. The TOP jack is most commonly the one for the speakers. I have no idea why you would have TWO audio cables remaining, unless the second one is for a separate input device, or for the sound itself - from the CD/Rom player to the mobo or soundcard.
If you accidentally plug the speaker cable into the wrong jack in the back, that's normally not a big deal. I've seen quite a few people do this - and everything worked fine afterwards anyway.
Hey Intel, AMD rulez!
