Need help connecting wires to new motherboard correctly.
Options
On Friday, I was at Micro Center and bought a new motherboard for the desktop that I have right now, I've tried almost everything, but didn't turn the computer on and not responding at all. I was wondering that I must have a "Power LED" connection to the motherboard to work properly, If it is, How??

Greetings. What motherboard do you have? You can also post pictures here if you would like.

It is a GIGABYTE GA-A320M-S2H AM4 MATX.

The power LED connection is specifically for the power light that indicates if the system is on or off. It shouldn't be necessary to get the system to turn. The only thing that would be required to turn the system on are the CPU power connection, motherboard power connection, and the power switch connection on the front-panel header (to use the button on your case).
Double check and make sure your power supply is set to I and not O. I is what it actually needs to be set to to turn on. -
Do you have,like for example, what should look like (Or a motherboard connection diagram) so that I can make sure that is connected and working correctly?

The manual kinda has this, it isn't actual pictures but there is a diagram labeling each port and what it is for. The manual for the board can be found at https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-A320M-S2H-rev-1x/support#support-manual
