Power led won't turn on
Hi,
This is a non-urgent question. It's just a power led not lighting up.
It's a friend's PC. He told me it used to power up when the PC was new, but after he took it to a service tech it didn't turn on when it came back, neither did the HD led.
Well the HD led did turn on, it was just that it was not placed where it should be (it was inside the case).
So, getting to the point, I installed a new mobo. An Asrock N68-VS3 FX.
I installed the power led pins to where the manual says. There are two cables with one pin each coming from the case, one is power led (+) and the other one power led (-). I followed the manual's instructions and it doesn't light up. I changed them just in case, didn't work. I also tried connecting them in a different way (in the correct pin place).
So could this just mean the light led is dead? It doesn't seem disconnected to me (http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/9316/sam0009y.jpg)
Thanks for your help.
