i apologize. i used the wording wrong. were the power lead runs into were the modem and sound is on the motherboard. when i plug it in it the power will not turn on. its a 478 pin mother board, c2057 2.8 ghz cpu, dell optiplex minitower. the power plug is right next to the apg video card plug slot.
