If you replaced the power supply with identical unit the cables connect to the same parts as before.
If you upgraded then we need to know your systems Product ID as the model name is not sufficient to lookup replacement parts at https://partsurfer.hp.com/partsurfer?searchtext=510-P013l
In addition what is the new power supply? Need model & part number please

the new psu is corsair cv450w 80+bronze, i opted for the non-hp brand because the cs on my region says that my pc is already 4+yrs old or smting like that and they didn't make any parts for it anymore

I need the part number from the old power supply as I need to look it up to see the connections. If you do not have it then (and in addition) I need the Product number for your 510-P013l
Some volunteers here, like @Prométhée can read minds and pull part numbers out of thin air, but I cannot.

hi
what are you talking about, what do you mean @BeemerBiker
if the computer is the model, HP Pavilion Desktop - 510-p013l
" I need the Product number for your 510-P013l "
there is not an infinity of product numbers, it must be this
Product Number
W2S18AA
Now a user here seems to be saying no problem with that
https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Hardware-and-Upgrade-Questions/Upgrading-psu-and-adding-gpu/m-...

I couldn't do anything here unfortunately
was this reply helpful , or just say thank you ? Click on the yes button

@Nadha78 I looked up the product ID and all of the power supplies listed
https://partsurfer.hp.com/partsurfer?searchtext=W2S18AA
are standard ATX power supplies and should connect just fine to your motherboard.
I take it there are other cables beside the power supply cables that have a problem
A picture of the mother board is here

Do you have the same cables? Which ones are giving you a problem?

@Nadha78 -- is this a (fuzzy) image of your motherboard: https://support.hp.com/doc-images/56/c05068252.jpg ?
On your motherboard, look at the white-coloured "block" with two rows of pins, near the bottom right of the image. That is where the two wires from the on/off switch should connect.
