    Another mystery cable!
    Okay, I asked at the local PC shop and they sorted me out with the last problem (I just had to move the pin). But now I've got another problem.. How to connect the ON button!
    I don't want to go back begging for advice at the shop again, it's not like I even buy anything from them :o

    Here's a picture of the connectors:




    The blue and white wires come from the ON button... but where to conect? It looks like the female connector plugs directly into the PSU but I really don't want to try that and find that it goes BANG on me! :eek:

    "on Button" ? Do you mean the power switch for the tower? I am kind of skeptical. Are you sure that isn't the wires from a fan? The power switch should be more like the Two pin headers in the grey bundle shown in the bottom left of your pic.


    Good Luck,

    At last! :)
    Thanks Morrowrj, I think you're right. The blue and white wires are looped around the ON switch (I can't see much because the front of the case doesn't come off) and then trail off to somewhere else... just lazy wiring I guess!
