when i hit ALT F2 it isn't doing nothing, it's just loading up the pc regularly.. i don't have a damn floppy.. i do, but i can't get it to work... i don't know which wire to plug into it, it's a small 4 pin female that has to go into the floppy? does this come from the Enermax or was it supposed to come with one?

Is THG Slightly Slacking??

Yep... floppies use a 4 pin female connector right off your power supply unit. You should notice one on a combined breakout on one of the PSU branches.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Try hitting just F2 or delete and see if that helps.

You can overclock your hard drive by taking thepower connector for floppy and sticking it where there r extra pins on the hdd! U hear it start to spin really fast and then it dies. hehe.
