    eMachine T2865 AU31 Help

    Hello,

    Not sure if this is the right forum to post this thread. But I seriously need someone's help. I have an eMachine T2865 with a non-working AU31 motherboard. I got a replacement MB as well as a new PSU (exact same make and model) from ebay, I connected everything as is, however I disconnected the wires below from the old motherboard without making any notation first. And the motherboard manual at (pg. 12) is no help to me. Not exactly sure how I should connect these wires base on the manual unless someone can make this out for me.

    power sw = black and white
    hdd led = red and white
    power led = green and white

    Anyhow, if someone can help or have one of this machine and willing to give me instruction in much detail to connect these wires back to the new motherboard, I would really really appreciated.

    Thanks in advance for any help anyone can give me.

    Suav

    These connect to the front-panel header - which should be labelled on the mobo with the positions of each of these connectors. The only issue is the polarity - Power SW doesn't matter, it's the ATX power button; the other two can be connected with the wrong polarity - if it doesn't work, just unplug them individually and switch the polarity.

        According to the PDF manual on pg. 12 at the above url as well as on the mobo, these connecters are labled in sequential order, the first being the PWR LED, then HDD LED then the PWR Button RST. Assuming, this is the order, then PWR LED would be connected to number 1, the HDD LED would be connected to number 2 and the PWR Button RST would then be connected to number 3.

        Well I've tried this and many other different arrangments and still nothing. No power nothing.. almost as the power supply is not working. But I know it can't be the PSU because it is a brand new PSU. Also the ATX power cable is connected.

        Well, any more help is greatly appreciated.
