Hello! 

A older pc of mine hasn't been booting, and I know its not my psu. I reset the cmos, and I tried to short the front panel connectors to turn on the pc without a power button,  but they didn't short. Am I going about this wrong, or could my front panel connectors be broke? If they are broke can I fix them?

 

Thanks so much!

Not impossible but highly unlikely. It's more likely a bad PSU or dead board.

Specs of the PC?
And how do you know it's not the PSU?

Mobo: h81m-c

Cpu- i5 4440

Hdd- Seagate barracuda 2000 gb

 

Those are all the specs I know. Its not the psu because I switched the psu the other day and I still had the same problem.
