Hi there, have a dell case, and a p5gc 1333 mobo. Can someone please tell me were the wire for the cases power button goes. The present power switch wire connector wont fit on the board (looks like 10 pin connector). Im pretty sure it goes just below and slightly to the left of the boards power switch. help!!!!

The front panel power switch is between the DIMM slot and the Primary IDE Connector. It has 9 little pins (4 on the left and 5 on the right). The case power pins are the top 2 on the left and the Power LED are the 2 bottom pins on the left.

Hi Cm, ok, i figured that that particular spot on the board was the correct one, just didnt know what pins did what. The question i have now can I just wire up the current wiring panel switch to one i found on another board(the connector), or does the wiring have to be of the same color..etc...
