Hi All,
Not so much of a headache but a "please inform me" topic here. After a year of use I decided that I was sick and tired of the colour scheme for my In Win 707 ATX. I got the black and red version on the cheap when I was pulling parts together last year and it's served me very well, just want to change the colours before I irrationally begin to hate it.
To this end I checked out the LEDs for the power and HDD usage on front panel circuit. Got some pics here, first is blurry (sorry). First, Circuitry in question, sitting on the front panel itself:
Now the two LEDs I wish to change (power first, then HDD):
I got the entire thing taken down to a local computer repairsy type place in town and the guy there said replacing them could not be done at all. I'm not even slightly an electrical engineer but that seems absurd and I wanted to ask if any of you knew how I'd go about swapping out the old LEDs and replacing them with new ones. (Where could I get some replacements, know for sure they would work, etc).
If all goes well I'm considering getting some of the case painted afterwards.
Thanks in advance.
