I'm putting together my first PC build, and my video card is a PCIex16 x800PRO. It has three different connectors at the end of the card that goes towards the front of the case, and I hooked a power connector (that came with the card) into one of them. What are the other two for?

The yellow connector is for composite video in/video out. Its designed for a front panel breakout box if you happen to have one. What color is the other connector?
I've gotten everything connected, but nothing is coming up for me. I have encountered 3 basic probable situations.
#1 Will I have to install the drivers for the x800PRO to get it to work?
#2 Could it be that everything isn't making proper connections. The tower I'm using is keeping me from putting the orange-colored flange all the way in, but the connectors with all the metal on them seem to be getting in like they should.
#3 Something is bum on my mobo.
