I am just building a computer and I am not sure where the firewire port is on on the motherboard? I at the the lead that has the number 1394 on the plug but I'm not sire where it goes. The board is in the link below, I'd appreciate if someone could explain where it goes. Thanks!!

1394 is Firewire. The ports are the 2 black ones in the middle of the picture.

Don't know what you mean when you say: "I at the the lead that has the number 1394 on the plug but I'm not sire where it goes."

Wouldn't that be the yellow ones?

You're right. The top one of the group of the left looks like this:

Firewire 400

I got my post totally wrong

. I meant the one on the main board where you plug the 1394 into. I found it now hiding under my soundcard, but thanks!!
