Hi, I have moved a motherboard from one PC Tower to another, and now the power button wont register. I have plugged the Power LED, Power Switch + Hard Drive and activity LED into the right places. The motherboard is an Intel D865GLC.
 
I can not see a good photo of this board, from what I can see it has no CPU power connection correct? (If you upgraded your RAM)Do you have the correct type and amount of RAM required? DDR200 or DDR433 and above wont work with this Motherboard. Only DDR400, DDR333, and DDR266 SDRAM will. You could try the slotted edge screwdriver trick on the Power Switch connection. Or find a second switch to test that the switch does work.

Pointless question. If it doesn have one, whats he suppost to do? Use a soldering iron and put one on it.

Pointless question. DDR2 will not fit in DDR slots.

The only one out of three worth asking.

1 if he did have the socket plug it up. IF not then dont wory about it. Stupid comment I know but its one of the biggest problems with people new to Computers.

2 With the DDR you have differance speeds. they range from DDR 200
and DDR 533 These are all 184 pin DDR SDRAM DIMMs. So yeah no shit DDR 2 will not fit in a ddr dimm.

More proof these forums are CRAP. Everyone is an expert!!! Its only gauged by comments made. 99% of comments on here suggest posters favorite CPU.

It looked like you had DDR2, my mistake. But even DDR 533 would work, it will just back clock to what ever speed the board supports. Plus he said he just moved the board from one case to another. Never siad he changed the memory, so I dont get why that would be a issue anyway. Plus like I said, even if he did use higher speed memory it would just back clock.
 
That is why I said open parenthesis If you upgraded your RAM close parenthesis

And I am sure you are correct it could back clock.
