Powering Arcade Monitor from PC?
frank_black:
Thanks for your suggestions, but for me, if it's not one thing it's another...
I remembered seeing a power pass through on my computer's power supply, but that was my old computer.(I just upgraded my system last month...no pass through on this power supply :'().
I tried every setting in the power management in my computers bios. None of them would allow the computer to automatically power on ( the power strip method). I finally decided to use the setting that allows you turn the computer by hitting any key on the keyboard.
I just thought that it would be cool to power on my whole cabinet by hitting any button on the control panel.
As it is now, I can turn my computer on from my control panel, but still have to turn the monitor with the original power switch on the top of my cabinet.
Oh well, I guess it's no big deal. Thanks again!
