I bought this old server motherboard and I have no idea how to turn it on this is the front panel connector

That is not the front panel connector. Looks more like a floppy connection (FD CONN)
Just wiggle a screwdriver around in there till you jump the right two pins.
>>55276594
that's old
>>55276801
It's only from 2009
>>55276755
If you look above the connection you can see the words fp conn
generally there's somewhere on the mobo that's 4x2 small pins which is the power, reset, hdd indicator, etc. You have to find that first.
>>55276594
there should be a little row of pins for the front panel connections, should be labeled with what each area of pins does
find the pins that correspond to power on/off, and jump them
you might have a cmos jumper somewhere near the cmos battery, you can use that to correctly jump the pins
or you can touch them both with anything small and metal, like a pair of tweezers or even a screwdriver

here's an example image for reference

shut up nigga
>>55276594
Use 100ohm resistor to short any pins with 5v present to ground.

>>55276942

He's an idiot. He bought an R410 motherboard.
>>55277597
Bruh it was only $15
>>55277619
You can't use it. It won't fit in any case except the R410 case.
>>55277632
Ik I'll figure something out for a case
>>55277619
you do know that the power supply (at least the connection pinout) for it is custom right?
good luck connecting a standard atx24 to it and watching it burn
hahahaha
>>55276925
>i have never touched a dell server ever
>>55277706
No you won't, you can't even figure out how to turn it on..Which you can't because you don't even have power going to the board.
>>55277777
very nice
Dude all the connectors are proprietary good luck lmao.
>>55277830

Buy some wooden planks from homedepot or someshit. Use woodscrews and build some wooden case.
