Lenovo h50 motherboard into a coolermaster haf x evo

[palmbeach83]

I bought a new case for my old computer. I put the hard drive diak reader and a 650 w psu into the coolermaster evo was putting in motherboard and found that there was no where to plug in the power button. Now if i need to buy a new motherboard to fit it would like to take the a78 i5 chip out and put in new motherboard but im having a problem finding a motherboard with an a78 chipset that will work with the coolermaster evo. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Here you have the manual for the computer, Lenovo H50: http://www.produktinfo.conrad.com/datenblaetter/1200000-1299999/001283470-an-01-en-HARDWARE_LENOVO_H50_50_90B6000AGE_PC_SYS.pdf

On page 26 and subsequent (as per the footer page numbers at the bottom of the page) you have a sketch of the motherboard (there are different models). You have to locate the Front Panel connectors, which include the Power Button. They are at the bottom right corner of the mobo. In the manual, there are no details on which pins of these Front Panel headers are for the Power Button, but if you look closely on the mobo itself, right around the header, there should be codes (maybe something like PWRBN for PoWeR ButtoN, or something like that) written indicating which pins are for what. Note that some of these cables have polarity (i.e. if they don't work when plugged, try them the other way around, as maybe you hadn't correctly aligned the + and - poles of the cables).
If you manage to do this, you won't have to buy a new mobo. But if you have to, you can probably find some on ebay or some recycling store (there are many on ebay that recycle old computers and sell at very competitive prices the working pices for parts).
Hope it helps!
