Hi, I just move all my part from my mini tower to a bigger tower and brought a corsair 430 power supply.

I have plug everything except the front panel because my small motherboard from mini tower doesn't have front panel,

Now, I can't turn the computer on and I think I need to plug one of the front panel cable to motherboard to turn on the switch but I don't know which cable goes to where.

Can you please look at the picture please.

I think one of them might be a cable for my start up switch that need to plug to my motherboard?

Thank you very much.


EDIT: The white one with 4 pin seems to come out from the power switch. But I don't know where does it go.

I can see from the second picture that there is no cable going into the CPU power plug. That is the white square plug with four holes to the right of the CPU. I just bought that CPU and was confused because the CPU power cable looks like it has 8 pins but in fact it is two 4-pin cables that are stuck together. Unstick them and plug one into the CPU power plug and see if it starts.

I did plug it as you said. Still doesn't work.

I think I need to plug the cable that use to start the computer. But I can't find the slot to put it in


EDIT: Figured it all. The 3 color cord with bunch of pin is the power switch cable
