Oh ... the mobo manual DOES provide sufficient docs to "unravel the mystery" ...

I would suggest two very bright reading lights, on either side of your build bench, and a LARGE magnifying glass and it helps to have some forceps or hemostats to retrieve any screws or jumpers, etc.

If your docs do not explain it ... you must not have all the docs. ... Download to another computer.

... I seriously doubt that anyone else, here, will be able to walk you thru it, jumper by jumper.

.... The hard power switch is actually on the PSU ... that mobo power jumper is for "soft power" and should not be required for test/build purposes.
