This motherboard uses an ATX power supply. In order not to damage any device, make sure all the 
devices have been installed properly before applying the power supply.

24-pin ATX power connector : PWR1

PWR1 is the ATX power supply connector. Make sure that the power supply cable and pins are
properly aligned with the connector on the motherboard. Firmly plug the power supply cable into the 
connector and make sure it is secure.
