Start PC w/o Case

[djscrew]

I am trying to start a PC up that has no case, I need to know how to do it. Here is the connector that goes on the MOBO if that helps.

The board is a Asus M2N 32 SLI Deluxe

Use a small screwdriver to shunt the power and ground terminals.

Once the power supply is all plugged in you just need to briefly short the power and ground pin together, I usually.just drag a flat head screwdriver across them.

yup just short the power/ground pins just be sure to have your motherboard resting on something non conductive/static free like wood or something.

You can use an "old school" jumper if you're scared of using a screwdriver. Just insert it, and when things start to spin, remove it.

Screwdriver is always easier for me. Or just, a ghetto I/O panel I made from old cases.

I generally use the button panel from an old case.

Even a wire as a jumper will work. Just be careful which hole you plug it into!
