ok i'm an idiot first off. i don't have the manual for this motherboard, AND i lost the sheet of paper where i wrote down how everything was connected when i took it apart. and i forgot to plug in all the little colored wires: reset switch, turbo led, etc etc. so now i'm kinda f-ed cuz i'm not sure where some of these wires go, or which pins are hot and which are grounds, etc. i'm trying to get a hold of a manual that is (hopefully) for the same mobo, but i'd rather get it fixed now if possible.
anyway, if someone more experienced can give me a helping hand or just tell me to work harder to get the manual then i'd appreciate it.
the box is a p90 produced around 1995. it's in a midtower case
this is what the pin strips on the motherboard look like
T-LED, HDLED, KEYLOCK, RST
110 010110 111010 11
1101 0111 011101 011
SPKR, FAN, IR, SLEEP
Legend:
0: open hole, no pin
1: pin
the above is how the strips are oriented on my board, i even put the labels in the same place as they appear on the board. the first pin strip runs long the bottom of the motherboard in the front corner (front of the at case), and that is what they look like from upside down. the second strip runs along the front (again, front of the case) edge of the motherboard, and they run as if written along the edge from bottom to top of the case.
the wires that plug into them are fairly standard i think, but they are:
Speaker: 4 pin jumper with 2 wires, black and red
HDDLED: 2 pin black and red
TurboLED: 2 pin black and yellow
Keylock: 2 pin blue and black
TurboSW: 3 pin red, black, and green
PowerLED: 3 pin with two wires, green and black
RestSW: 2 pin black and white
I can't even get the damn thing to post right now.. though i thin if i can get the reset switch plugged in riht that might fix that, i'm not sure what other wires might be preventing it from doing anything. anyway, any help great or small would be much appreciated.
