I just put together my first PC and everything seems to be running fine, except for the fact that I can not turn on the computer using the power button on the tower. I have to use the power button on the motherboard in order to turn the computer on. I have checked to make sure everything is connected properly. I do have three unused cables that attach to the tower and come from the locating of the power button, but I have looked and they do not seem to connect to, or reach anything for that matter. The cables are all the same, but vary in length. they are pretty small and skinny and at the end of each one there are two small metal prongs that are encased is side a hollowed rectangle and it looks like each one is missing a third metal prong. The tower that I have is the Fractal Design R4 and the motherboard that I am using is the ASUS Z87M-PLUS.
I think I know what is wrong but I am not sure. On the motherboard next to the power button is the Serial Port Connector (10-1 pin COM) I think I need a plug t go in there but I do not seem to have it.
Thank You,
