it's not powering now…..im using my friend's laptop…please HELP
Answer:
Your motherboard should now be sitting in the midst of a lot of wiring. There are two sources of these wires: 1-Case wiring and 2- Power supply wiring. I don’t know which one you pulled it out accidentally… Wiring up the case to the motherboard is very confusing… you have to take it to a computer technician or try to resolve by yourself if you can match the right connector to the right header on the motherboard …I guess the best way is to go check motherboard manual…here is some help… Read connectors very carefully…. Power switch > Power LED< HDD LED>Reset button>Case speaker. Case fan>USB/FireWire connectors and Audio connectors. But I think your problem is the power.. see if a power cable is out…
Check the 20-pin (or 24-pin) motherboard power connector and the 4-pin auxiliary power connector, which supplies extra power to the motherboard to cater for modern AMD and Intel CPUs. If that won’t help, take it to a technician. I hope it will help…. Good luck to you

to add onto this the newer motherboards do not have a 4-pin auxiliary power connector but an 8-pin. Generally the 20 4 connector is on the right side of the motherboard. and the 4-8pin connector is on the left. possibly top left.
if you’ve lost the manual to your motherboad check to see if it is located here. never tried it
