Hi guys,

 

I have got a P4SD rev 1.09 motherboard which will not fire up. It has a hood lock and hood sensor on the board and also a lot of pins with security next to them. I am assuming that as I don't have this in its original case there is something that can be done with jumpers to override the chassis intrusion if that is what is preventing it starting. The power light is on but the processor fan will not start. I am also assuming that this board has a standard atx pin out.

 

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Even if it's detecting the Chassis as Intruded, it should still boot and then tell you that on the screen. Usually all you need to bypass Chassis intrusion is a jumper to put over the two pins.
