Well that i don't know, it would help if i had a pic or some way to see how it went wrong.

Did you put all the long legs on the positive side and all the short legs on the negative side?

I think my prob is with the resistor value
8 leds
20 ma
2 v
I wired all the positive together and all negative together then negative i put on the negative in molex plug and positive in the 12v molex plug they lit up but very dim I could hardly see them I had to cover my hand over them to see the light

You list a 5v power in your one post so thats what i went by but then hooked to your 12v in the last post, move the power to the 5v wire and see if that helps.

Just move the power wire to the 5 volt wire and keep the one you got or if you got to use the 12v i think 60 is about what you need but might want to check a led resister calculate.

I ran mine off the 5 but it will put out the same amount of light as long as you use the suggested resister.
