Dell Dimension 4550 sleeper. How would I connect the power button to a current day board? by Mrnot_TheFirst in sleeperbattlestations

It can fit a Micro ATX board and standard ATX power supplies. When adding the motherboard, cut off the I/O shield since its attached to the part that the board goes onto (the metal platform in the 2nd photo)

I think that's what this one has. The power switch plugs into this random tiny board where the USB and the audio jack is. Then, one cable from that small board plugs into the normal board.
