Thanks!
 
I took toggle switches connected to HD LED cables (from old AT cases) and "reset PB's from old AT PC's" and use them to turn the systems on and off. 🙂

Good man! 😉 I too used reset switches stripped out of old AT cases for my caseless rigs when I had them running too. 🙂

Wow and I thought I was the only one to scavange like that:Q

Guess that is why I have a big pile of junk in my Computer Work Room. There is always a use for everything🙂

Heh, I'm a scavenger as well. 🙂

The momentary ON buttons I used were from way, way back in college, I hung on to them figuring sooner or later they would come in handy. Sure enough, 19 years later, they did! 😀

And all the wire and connectors were all laying around in my workbench, so it's not like I went and bought anything. 🙂

Didn't think about the reset buttons on the ATs. I still have a few of those AT PCs lying around, I've been planning on gutting them and getting rid of the cases, as I need the space for ATX crap, so I'll make sure to grab the reset buttons/wiring too. 😀

Take all the LED indicator plugs too...as you can cut the LED off and solder/wire a momentary toggle switch or pushbutton and they fit just fine on the ATX Power On header on the board! 😉

Rather than keep quoting everyone previous... 😉

I used to think it was the "packrat" in me that hung onto all these extra widgets, but I realize now it was the influence of amatuer radio friends that got me into this mode of thinking/planning. 🙂
