I'm building a PC, and everything's hooked up, but I can't turn it on. The DELL case that I'm working on is from '98, and has a 16 pin connector that controls the on/off/sleep functions, and powers the LED. The board I'm working on is an ASUS P4B, and has a 20 pin male power connector thing.

That's the connector on the board. The four x's are labeled PWRBTN. I've tried using pin jumpers from the old motherboard to connect the four pins in every single possible combination, but nothing happens. Yes, the power supply works, I can hear the capacitors charging when I plug it in.
Please show me a way to make the thing think that the power button is on all the time so I just have to unplug it to shut it off.
Thanks.
