ATX power supply (PSU) generally have two plugs, one for the power directly to motherboard (24 pins) and one to apply additional power to the graphics card (4 pins), they only go in one way and the clip on the end of the PSU wires must go on the same side of the clips molded to the motherboards receiving connection. In other words if it's not going it, flip it around, you should NOT have to force it and you should hear a click once it's connected, and if you needs to disconnect you will need to hold the clip on the end of the wire back so it slips off by pulling the wire (with your fingers on the plastic end, not the wires.) straight up off the motherboard when it's placed on a non-static surface (like the metallic plastic bag it shipped in.)

What are some characteristics that define a ATX motherboard?
There are many differences between AT and ATX motherboards. The most noticable, without disassembly, are probably the keyboard connector (AT is much larger) and the power switch. The power switch for an AT motherboard clicks on and clicks off. The power for an ATX motherboard is a momentary push button that is always open unless pressed. Internally the best indicator is the power supply connector to the motherboard. An AT motherboard uses a two piece single row connector. An ATX motherboard connector is one piece with two rows of ten connections.

How do you disable the seat belt alarm on a 2004 Hyundai getz?
Under the drivers side seat is a white plastic connector plug. It has two wire going into it and the plug is fixed to the t=bottom of the seat. If you pull the plug the chime and light will go out for good. Note - the white connector plug is fixed to the seat by a plastic tab. I found that just pulling that firmly downwards separates it allowing a little better access.
