I recently dug up a Pentium II custom build, which still works as I tested it out for a brief amount of time. I then took it apart to clean it out, and then put it back together. But I'm having one little problem. I can't seem to get it to turn on, and I know why. It's because I can't seem to remember where two Power SW pins go on the motherboard. I already connected the speaker, H.D.D. LED, power LED, reset SW and speaker pins successfully, but not so much for the power SW pins. So, about this motherboard, it's an Intel E139761 model, and it has a Pentium II CPU. I'll show you what I'm talking about with where certain pins go...
As you can see on the bottom of the motherboard, it has most pins assigned to specific ones, but not the power SW pins.
Here are these two pins I'm trying to locate,
So yeah, I'm having this problem where I can't locate the pins for the power SWs, which are required for this PC to boot, because there are no assigned pins for them on the motherboard. I guess I don't know how to work with older hardware components very well. Any comments would be appreciated.
