Beeps when I turn it on. Got inside and made sure everything was secure and found these cables unplugged. Do they need to be plugged in. Also got not picture on the monitor when attached.
Not necessarily. Most computers have extra power connector for modifications and expansions.

Answers to your questions:
1. Yes
2. Very likely
3. a Google search should show you what the connectors look like.
4 HP/Compaq do a good job of providing documentation. Go to hp.com and put in your system information. You should be able to locate motherboard diagrams there. If you can't let me know and I'll try to locate them.
