24 pin motherboard connector.

I try to remove the 24 pin motherboard connector to change the power supply but it doent come out. I press the button on the side and try to remove it but it still doesnt come out. Should I use force or will it break the connector?

Hi StargazerUSA,
Are you sure the problem is the motherboard? It could be the powersupply or the connection from the power button to the MB. I don't think you'll find specs for changing the motherboard pin connectors.
This PC is about 5 years old, so it's going to be hard to find replacement parts if something else happens. It would probably be easier and less expensive to get a new PC.

  • MSI Big Bang-XPower, Corsair AX1200W and 6-pin motherboard connector

    Hello, I apologize if this has been answered but I didn't seem to find it on the forums. I have the Corsair AX1200 power supply and the MSI Big Bang-XPower motherboard. The board has two ATX 8-pin connectors. I know that the second one is only needed if you are doing serious overcloking. But I assume it's ok to plug both in whether or not I'm overclocking?? I see the AX1200 has two EPS/ATX 8-4 pin connectors so I am fine there.
    My real question is that the mother board also has an ATX 6-pin connector for the graphics card. Firstly, is this needed since the graphics card has it's own power connector (I have the EVGA SuperClocked 015-P3-1582-AR GeForce GTX 580). The card needs a PCI-E 6 pin and an 8 pin connector. I see the AX1200 has six 6+2 pin connectors so I believe I'm fine there.
    But for the motherboard connector, can i use one of the PCE-E 6+2 pin connectors (just 6 pins obviously), or is this not good sine the connector is not labeled as an ATX connector?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
     Bumping this as it is the question I have. How does the motherboard access this power from the EPS? It is constantly available to the cpu? Would it not be better to plug in the 2x8 pin EPS anyway as it gives a greater redundancy?
    I am sorry if this is a stupid question but I recently got flamed on a forum for carrying on about connecting the EPS cables up to my Corsair Ax850. The flamers carried on and on about how I would never need to use the EPS unless it was LN2 cooling.
    I cannot see the harm in it but I would like to understand computer power supplies a bit more and how exactly they work. For example why do some vid cards have 6 pin and other 8 pin when it looks as if both plugs just have a 12 volt lead on one row and the other row a ground lead?
    Anyhoo.
    Happy first post to me.

  • PCI Fan for PowerEdge 860 has 3 pins, motherboard connector is 5 pins? how to connect?

    I recently purchased a Perc RAID card for my PowerEdge 860 rackmount server.  It came with a PCI fan assembly.  I can't see how to connect this fan to the motherboard.  The fan has a 3 pin connector.  The PCI fan connector on the motherboard is a 5 pin connector.  How do I connect this fan?  Is there an adapter I can purchase?
    My server is flashing orange at me now with a fan error in the openmanage software.  Everything appears to be running fine, but I'd like to correct this problem.

    Yep, the connector is there.  It is a 5 pin connector.  The connector on the fan that came with the PERC board has only a 3 pin connector.  It is notched so that even if I knew which 3 of the 5 pins to connect to, I couldn't.

  • Z87 XPower -- What's the third 6-pin power connector for?

    I'm a happy new owner of a Z87 XPower, currently getting it installed and I'm seeing a six-pin power connector between the CPU and PCI-E slots (this is in addition to the two 8-power traditional motherboard power connectors).  I'm assuming it's a PCI-E power connector but can't find any documentation about whether it's required or optional or under what circumstances I would use it.  Is there any documentation out there about this power connector?  It's in a bit of a problematic area as far as cable routing goes, it's next to the rear end of the expansion slots which is as far away from cable management routes as you can get and requires routing a connection over at least third of the motherboard no matter how you run it.

    that 6 pin is only needed if your running 2 or more graphics cards to supply extra power to the PCI-E lanes as its draw will exceed the limits that they have causing instability!
    it is an optional connector and if you only have 1 graphics card its not needed at all (I usually connect it anyway if I plan on going SLI or crossfire in he future!)

  • ATX 8-pin Power Connector: JPWR2 12v power to CPU

    MSI P67A-G43 (B3) motherboard, COOLER MASTER Elite Power Supply, Intel Core i5-2400 Sandy Bridge 3.1GHz  
    I have two 4-pin power connectors coming from my power supply. Should I connect just one to the top of the socket as shown in this link
    http://www.mediafire.com/i/?91bhhi1myt9f5zo
    or should I hook both of them to the 8-pin socket?
    I am waiting for a replacement for my i5 cpu. My new build wouldn't boot and gave a 5 beep code and then would immediately shut down. No display on screen. I'm hoping it's not the motherboard.
    Thanks.

    It should work with only 4, but if u have 8 pin connector coming from your power suply i would connect the other one too and be done with it.

  • How to diagnose a broken 30 pin dock connector?

    Is there a "diagnostic" application to determine if my Iphone 4 — 30 pin dock connector is fully functional? BTW - all lint and dirt has been removed (delicately). This iPhone has been able to perform TV/video out and mirror display with a (still) fully functional 30 pin to VGA connector, VGA cable and VGA equipped monitors. This phone currently cannot perform the same task. Only other variable is a conflict with iOS 6.1.3.
    Thanks for any help.

  • 30-pin Doc Connector - Potential Problem ?

    Hello,
    Today I inserted my charger into the 30-pin doc connector and the phone
    started to charge normally. Usually when the charger is not fully plugged in
    I push it in a little more so that it has fitted all the way in. I thought the charger
    had not gone in all the way (when it had) and I pushed it in more three more
    times with a little bit of force. Nothing happened and the phone charged just
    fine and everything was normal.
    My question is,
    1) By additionally pushing in the charger, have I in any way
    damaged the 30-pin doc connector?.
    2) Should I be concerned for the future?.
    3) How can a pin doc connector possibly damage? (ie by pushing or bending etc?)
    Thanks

    It appears that the device was defective right out of the box and if that's the case I would return it right away for an exchange and indicate the issue that you are having with the dock connector. Also inform them that there appears to be an object that's wedged/stuck in the connector and that you received it in that condition. From my past experiences Apple is very good about exchanging items like that especially when you receive it in that manner/condition. I hope that helps. My apologies I also forgot to point out that if it's an Online purchase you don't have to do an online return you can simply go to your nearest Apple Store along with your printed out Online Apple store receipt that you received with your shipment.

  • Mac Air A1304 normal-SSD to motherboard-connector cable???

    Hi guys,
    I need to upgrade my 120GB LIF connector HDD with a new 18." SSD. Some manufacturers offer this upgrade (http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other+World+Computing/SSDAPMB120/ - i am not trying to advertise this!) and I noticed that these products are basically normal 1.8" SSDs with a HDD cable identical to this A1304 but the HDD end is normal SATA instead of LIF. The other side is the Apple motherboard connector as can be seen here: http://www.dhgate.com/store/product/for-apple-macbook-air-13-3-quot-a1237-a1304/ 141555045.html#sc1-19-1|2968362272.
    The question is can we find this cable only? Apple-to-SATA instead of the factory Apple-to-LIF? Then we can use any 1.8" SSD..
    I hope I did not confuse you.

  • 7 pin DIN connector.

    Hello Team,
    What are the features of the 7 pin DIN connector on the right side of the PowerBook G4?
    Is is just video, or does it include audio as well?
    The PowerBook G4 comes with a conveter cable to composite video, if there is no audio does it also convert to 4 pin video so I can connect direct to a TV using S-Video?
    If the 7 pins allow for video and audio is there a cable which has 7 pin DIN on one end and on the other end a S-Video DIN plus audio RCA connectors.
    Thanks.

    I hope someone can give a difinitive answer as it is badly documented by Apple and other places.
    It seem that the 7 pin DIN is used to provide three output options using special connectors for video only....
    1) 7 pin DIN video out
    2) 4 pin S-video with dongle video out
    3) Composite video out, cable supplied with PowerBook G4
    No audio. It seems like to show video and audio on the screen you need to use the 7 pin DIN, as converted, to show the video, and the headphones socket to get audio.
    Not a nice way to conect. The DIN connector is on the right and the headphones connector on the left.
    If this is wrong, and I hope it is, then please let me know.

  • Lost 30 pin dock connector cap - need info as to where I can replace it

    I feel I'm alone in the universe. I have lost the little white 30 pin dock connector cap for my 3G, 15 Gb iPod. Does anyone know how I can get some replacement caps? Apple does not seem to offer them as a after sale item. I have searched iLounge and found a mythical reference to a filco product called the Dock protector cap but one reference link was dead and the other put me through to a Japanese Amazon page that was unintelligible. Are there any domestic products available? A quick look at Belkin and Griffin came up empty. Please help!

  • D10 - Voltage of 10 pin and 8 pin power connector

    Dear All
    I got a D10 here, the power supply suddenly stops to work this afternoon, I have already called my brother in US to find me FRU parts. But this might take one week or longer, I borrow a big 850W PSU from my colleague, but it doesn't have 10 pin and 8 pin power connectors on it. I know the voltage used by computer internally are 3.3V, 5V and 12V. Just wondering, what voltage shall I supply to these 10 pin and 8 pin connectors?
    I sent the demaged one for recycling,..
    Thanks in advance
