First of, download this manual (click here), it's a pdf file, it'll open up on your browser (Internet explorer or you can read the contents on your computer, to open the file on your computer, you'll need a pdf reader, if you haven't already installed a pdf reader, click here to download Adobe Reader) open the manual and scroll down to Page No. 33, there, you'll see some labelled connectors, "C" is the front panel connector where you are going to plug in the power switch, reset switch etc... Note the number 1-9 and refer the connections on Page No. 35, it should connect like this :


Upper : PLED = Power Led and PWR + GND = power switch
Bottom : HDLED = Hard Disk Led and Ground+Reset=Reset switch


You also need to note that there are two Power Connectors (from SMPS), one with 4 pins/plugs and another 20 pins/plugs. Both of them should be connected, otherwise it'll never boot up even though all other connections are correct and all other components are working.

Let me know if you have problem.

Good luck.
