I know there are other posts relating to no video output with something having to do with the motherboard however, none of these have been caused by the problem I have. My problem is my power button connectors. I recently took my Dell Inspiron 3847 apart completely and installed it into a new Corsair Carbide Spec-06 (Black). It comes with a different method of power button cable connection via two positive and negative power led single pins (female) and two double pins (female) for reset switch and main power button. The problem is, I've checked the manual for my motherboard, and it doesn't tell me where the positive and negative pins are for the power led. I'm using a Dell s1150 88DT1 motherboard. I've drawn an arrow pointing to where I had them setup:
Other than using the case's power button, I'm having to use my 3847's 660 power switch. Which looks like this:
Here are the cables that came with the case:
When plugging in the case's power cables, I get no output to my monitors, but the whole system starts up like normal without any indication that there's a problem. When I plug in my 660, everything starts up fine and there is video output. It would greatly be appreciated if someone could help troubleshoot this with me. I do plan on getting a new modern MSI motherboard to fit in this case for my main rig. Thanks.
