There should be two rows of pins sticking out on the both, mostly near the corner of the front side of the mobo (the side near the front of case when mobo is inserted). Near it, there should be words like HDD, PWR printed on the mobo.
It is C1 on this picture:

We know where c1 is but the only words labeled is keylock and speaker.

Can you take a picture of the general area? Try each pair at a time. No harm is done if it doesn't work.

The board's manual should be on the soiftware disk that came with the board. Or you simply go to the manufacturer's own support site for downloads like the page seen at http://download.aopen.com.tw/Default.aspx | |

ill try to post a picture but i have tried the switch on every single pin and it wont work, its like there no power even hooked up when i plug it in nothing happens fans dont spin or anything and the fans arent even hooked up to the board they are hooked up to the power supply, is it possible i have a bad power supply? or does the board tell the power supply to turn on? and i cant find a schematic or a manual anywhere on the web for this **** thing, id hate to go out and buy a new mobo processor and power supply, is it possible to overload the power supply to where it wont run like having too much **** plugged in?

The link here is for the different mirrors in different locations for downloading the full user manual depending on where you are. You see the 7 links one for each mirror with the file description above those at File Download Property  | |
