The cable from the front of your case indicates all designated cable,IDE LED/SPEAKER CONNECTOR/POWER LED/RESET SWITCH and ATX POWER SWITCH. Power switch is a 2 pin connector(power and ground) it will also help if you read the manual that comes with the MOBO.

If you know where the power switch is and you've got the connector, just plug it in .. got a 50/50 chance of getting it right :p

It's even better: 100% because a switch doesn't have + and gnd...
Thats what happens when I become too paranoid and start adding in error bounds :p

if you connected that and the power is there anything else that you can do wrong or gorget?
Obviously there's always something you can forget or leave out or screw up :p

and what might that be???
Um... if it's "something smalll and stupid and you just plain forgot" ... nobody can tell you. What i said was more of a figurative thing kinda like "The sun will shine forever" -- obviously it wont -- but its a trivial contradiction
