    Holy ..uh..sorry guys.. I uh.. I mean.. I forgot about the power button in the front panel. Oh man....I'm so sorry about that. Sometimes it's right under the nose. Thing was - I was doing the button in the back - never did the most obvious thing. I guess I'm just so darned nervous about...

    MechB - so as shown in my pics - if connect that power SW cable over the two pins highlighted in your picture - the two reds - then the power supply should light up/activate when I turn the button on? I've tried that and it hasn't made a bit of noise at all. I have a video card in - the ram...
