The power switch is a push button switch; one pulse on those pins will switch the thing on, another will switch it off (or suspend mode, as configured in the BIOS). It might be that holding the switch in (ie connecting the two pins permanently) does the trick though. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB (ex-VK3TYD). CCs of replies from mailing lists are welcome.

There was a long discussion of this on slashdot.org last week; look in their archives. The solution is to electrically connect (certain) two of the wires in the bundle that plugs into the motheboard, or else to connect some of the wires leading to the power 'switch'. The deatails are over there. Carl
Re: ATX power on
On some boards, it's a matter of connecting two pins on a jumper on the motherboard, the case switch performs that connection. That should translate to (if these two pins are connected, the power supply is supposed to be on, until the drop and then go on again.) Your BIOS manual might tell the tale, some careful experimentation might as well. Insert standard caveats here.

This is more than likely a function of the BIOS of your motherboard. Look through your BIOS and see if it supports this functionality. If it doesn't you're probably out of luck. Gary

ATX power on
Hi! Does anybody how to make an ATX motherboard boot without having to press the 'power' button everytime? That is, I want an standard AT behaviour: if there's power in the line, then I want the machine running without having to press anything. TIA! -- p.
