The wires to the power switch usually consist of 2 or 3 wires which are
connected to the motherboard by a small square or rectangular plug.  The
plug is simply pushed onto pins on the motherboard.  On the plug and
also on the motherboard next to the pins is a label that should say
"PWR" or "POWER" or something similar.  It is best to get sighted help
at this point if possible, since there is no way to be sure the plug is
connected properly unless you can see the labels.  However, if this is
the only disconnected plug, trial and error should work, since the only
thing you will have to worry about is whether the plug is backward or
forward.  If it is backward, you shouldn't blow up your computer, it
simply won't work until you put it right.

HTH,
Lorenzo
