Going through the pins in pairs as suggested might and probably will work (eventually). It could also cause a big fry-up (as in cooking your motherboard). Advice of this nature is typical of Compaq/HP, like they are a most unhelpful pack of sods most of the time. Two things come to mind; The motherboard might have written on it somewhere the actual motherboard identifying code. This may assist prospective helpers to locate the appropriate manual. The other thing worth mentioning is that most modern motherboards have the pin connections actually written beside the pins (you will need a magnifying glass). Failing this I would suggest you throw out that particular motherboard (I have no faith in compaq/HP products anyway) and acquire a motherboard complete with the relevant manual.
