These the the plugs. Any idea why they won't work?

I'm assuming the wires don't match up, but there are only 4 wires; two to the power button, two to the LED.

That's looks more like an internal USB plug in the 2nd picture. The power switch etc will be 2 wires, and there should be 3 or 4 sets.

Would it be a 2x3 plug with one of the middle ones missing?

are you using a proprietary case?

 

thats the only place i ever saw a case use a block style plug for buttons/leds

What do you mean by proprietary?

The wires from the power button lead directly to that plug.

Insert the separate wires instead of using the hub.

How do I do that?

I think that is a USB internal connector, The LED's, power switch, reset switch come separately from each other

Then why does the wire lead directly to the power button?

What case are you using? If its a pre built, then you need to redo the front panel connections

like a case from HP, dell or acer thats for one of their prebuilt machines.

Yeah it's a lenovo case...

I'm assuming I need to get a new power button. Any places that would have it locally? Like Best Buy or Staples?

if you can figure out what holes in the connector are hooked up to what, you can just take the individual cables and hook them up. (that type of connector disassembles rather easy)

Thanks; I'll have my friend who lives a block away help me now. Shouldn't be too hard (hopefully)

But just in case; could anyone link me a decent one thats under $30? Thanks!
