BECAUSE YOU HAVE IT SET UP TO POWER UP ON AC POWER RESTORE REMEMBER!?!

Why the hell does it power up in your house without those wires attached?

So this whole time you've had the opus power switch wires hooked up to the wrong pins eh?

half the time i didnt have the blasted things hooked up at all. lol

I assumed those only dealth with the whole hibernation deal.


And NO, when hooked up in my house, i only have the main harness coming from my PS to my mobo. I turn the power switch on my PS tp on and the pc boots up.

Also someone said maybe the remote wire im hooked up to doesnt have anough power or whatever. But does that really matter? The OPUS is getting it powers from the battery. Its just using the remote wire as a way to determine when to turn on and off right?

are you being sarcastic?!? lol

What are those point of those wires if i can boot the mobo without them.

Check your opus for flashing lights, It should flash in different sequence to let you know if its operating ok.

everytime I check it, it blinking once every 2 seconds or so.

but when operating does the light stay on.

never looked. the screen is in front, the pc is in the trunk. i will check it out tomorrow as well.

I think what your system is doing is overloading itself, your opus may be damage. check opus check lights while your system is booting up.
