Hi,
Kindly check the connection from the front power button to the motherboard. The front power button wire may not be plugged into the correct jumper.
if that wire is hooked correctly, remove the memory modules from the system and all other wires from the board , except the power supply connectors to the board and then power it on , check the status of the light on the power button.
if you can provide us with the model number of the motherboard , we would be able to help you better

We just bought a house and the living room has a light fixture and there is a dimmer switch that controls it. I removed the light fixture and installed a ceiling fan but the fan barely moves and the light...

You're correct. The dimmer switch was not made for that fan.

The Green is ground > so you're right there too. I assume other plugs nearby are working when dimmer is on. Check that to make sure.

By your description, I assume there is NOT another switch or dimmer that connects to same light. If so, you need a 3-way switch and the following instructions are void.

I suspect when you wired the new fan, that you saw the red and small black wires in the ceiling box. Did you connect the fan and light to those wires? If so, the following information will help you wire the switch.

Your incoming Hot line is probably the larger black wire that connects to Dimmer black >>> this wire will connect to either screw on the new switch

To test Hot wire for sure: Take out dimmer and mark wires for identification. Separate wires. Turn on power and test each wire to bare ground. Tape tester leads to wood sticks so hands are away from power. You'll be fine. Tester lights up on Hot wire.

Next: The smaller black and a red wires are a toss up.

Here's how I would proceed. Connect the black Hot to either screw on switch. Connect red wire to other screw. Put wire nut over small black. Turn on power. Flip switch. Check both lights and fan to see which works with red wire.

Next reverse the toss up wires. Put wire nut over red. Connect small black to switch. Check both lights and fan.

If red and small black control the light & fan, then connect them together on the same screw, and you're done.

If you want to control the fan and light separately, buy double switch, and then Hot connects to dark-colored screw on one side of switch, and red and small black connect to two different screws on opposite side of switch.

My fan has three wires, black white and blue. It had no manual and I wonder how to wire it to the on/off switch.

Put the black and blue wire together with the black wire on ceiling. Put the White with the White wire on ceiling. Bare/green wires are ground put them together.

What fan wires do.
The black wire is to power the fan motor.
The blue wire is to power the light on fan.
The white wire is neutral.

If you wire this way you turn on the switch and use the pull chains to control the fan and light.

You can also buy a remote control unit at a home depot. And it will have instructions on how to hook to fan and ceiling.

Mirus Desktop Computer

green-white for front panel Power indicator LED , Blue-white for RESET Switch , Orange-white for POWER BUTTON , Red-white for HDD LED . The berg pin header on the motherboard will have these legend printed just beside the connector or due to lack of space slightly away from it .

Computer Build Problem

Try taking out the mobo and ps out of its casing, lay it on a table, hook things together and power it up. I had some problems before caused by mounting studs or try insulating all stubs from the mobo. hope this will help.

New build computer wont turn on (ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe Socket 939)

The ATX power supply needs to have pin16(PS_On#) to be connected to COM for it to work. When you press the power switch on the front panel of the computer, you are essentially making this connection. Check that the cable from the power supply to the motherboard is making good connection. You can verify operation of the power supply by shorting Pin16 to pin17 on the powersupply output, with a paper clip. Pin16 is usually a green wire and 17 is black. Hope this helps. -Vish
