Title: Motherboard (computer) power button
Post by: cmarion1024 on October 26, 2011, 04:32:28 pm

I have seen some asking questions about modifying the power button or having one external, etc.  I am no genius or claiming to be one, but I thought this article might be a good reference point for modding the power button.  Its used as a guide for people who do case mods, which is make a computer case out of some weird item with the components inside (for those who dont know).
