If your keyboard has a power button, i think it is the circular shaped
one that has a circle with a vertical line cut through the top. it
should be on the top part towards the right. The older keyboards had a
left triangle on them. There was a brief period when the boards did not
come with the button.
I hope this helps, and hello back to you!
