having the same problem but PC has been working before and my suply has a 20 and a 4 pin connector but cant find anywhere for the 4 pin.

the 4 pin aux power plug with 2 black and 2 yellow wires plugs in around the cpu area
if you are refering to the 4pin that is split off the main power connector because your main connector is a 20 pin,then you just leave it loose it does not connect anywhere

Sorry if I'm being thick, but isn't the 4 pin to power a PCI Express card? If there's no display and you've got a powered card, it might need the connector?
