HI, Good news. I got the motherboard up and running. CPU fan spinning. I just got to check wriing again bec I dont see where the power led light supposed to light up when its on. Then I think I am set after that.

The front panel connector pins are probably the biggest source of headaches for home-builders

Yeah your right. Now there's still no led light when power on for power button and the light on Floopy disk stays on.. Hmm something is crossed somewhere....

Floppy drive cable connector is upside down for starters - reverse it.

Try reversing the power led connector and see what happens .

Reversing the floppy connection fixed it:o . Thanks! Still no luck with power led. You see I'm looking at this connection for power led. Let me try to explain it to you about what I am looking at here. power led has 2 wires on a 3 hole connection. Now on that connection each wire is on one end on connector so that leaves the middle with no wire. when I tried to connect it, it's missin either side of connection if I plug one way or the other way. Does that help?

Oh By the way, When I turn on the computer from the back, everything comes on. Excpet for power led light, Still no light. Even when I press that power button, nothing happens. I'm gonna try reversing the power button wire and see if it helps.

Yes, that helps. On the back of that connector plug you should see the metal clips where the wires are clipped in to the plug. Get a pin, depress the clip and pull the wire out of one side of the plug. Push it back in to the middle hole. Your motherboard requires the two wires to be on adjacent pins. You can work out for yourself which way round it needs to go (obviously if it doesn't work try the wires the other way round.) That bit about the connectors needing to face the same way should be a useful starting point for determining which wire to move.


Edit: You've obviously got the connectors reversed

GUess what? I counted how many pins one side and the other side. I decided to switch whole connections around filling all the holes with pins and I got the power led light to lit up. I wonder do I have to wait few seconds or something before using power button to try and turn power off in front panel?

I sincerely hope you are disconnecting the power from that motherboard before making any changes whatsoever.

Switch off, disconnect the power lead or turn off the mains switch, make changes, turn it back on.

Even with the system shut doewn, there is still power in the motherboard, and changing things can blow the thing up!

Yeah I forgot to tell you this earlier. I always unplug the power cord bec I always use anti-static wrist band and I use the clip to clip on the power cord to the wall so I dont blow up anything.
