My specs are in my sig. I just employed a ghetto cable extension mod so my case connector cables would more easily reach my mobo. There is always the chance that I botched it, but I really don't think so, as the Power LED, HDD LED, and Reset switch are all functioning perfectly. The ATX Switch is a two-pin connector, I have tried it connected with both possible orientations; neither work. I have checked my soldering, as I said the cable has been extended so that is always a potential source of error, however I can pretty much guarantee the cable is solid all the way along.
I am convinced it is a software/BIOS issue. I have scoured the BIOS for all possible settings. There is only one related option, which determines whether a keyboard command can power on the PC. This is set to "button only." The only other related option is to choose between an instant action or a 4-sec delay, which is set to instant.
My mobo has built-in power/reset buttons, designed to test the build before it is mounted in a case. These both function perfectly, in fact these are the only way I am currently booting my system. Are there any commonly known issues with motherboards that feature these switches? Do I have to somehow disable them in order for my ATX power switch to work? Unfortunately as of right now I have to either choose between setting up USB keyboard/mouse power up options, which I really do not want to do, or run my computer with the side panel off in order to access the mobo's power switch.
Anyone have any ideas? I've pretty much exhausted all options except completely redoing the wiring job.
