My mainboard actually managed to power on as I was trying to install the input cover... I didn't fully snap it in but I guess I connected some pins in such a way that it received an "on" signal. I wasn't sure how to turn it off without just trying to connect the input cover while it was on (I did, carefully, and then immediately shut it off using the normal power button on the cover). Is there a way to power down the mainboard on the board itself, without having the cover connected?
