i have a mobo, cpu, and ram that i would like to be able to run out of case, but thats the problem: i dont have a power on switch that seems to work. i have one in my current system, but the case is closed and i need this out-of-case system to be in a different place.

any suggestions on how to power on the mobo?

p.s. - i have a psu, just not the power-on button. if i need to make one, i have many tools at my disposal, as well as wire.

Take a screw driver and touch it to the pins on the mobo where you would normally plug the power switch wire into. Good Luck and if you need anymore explanation just ask.

If you don't mind me asking... WTF did you do to your power switch?
