Nice Minifigs :cool:

That adapter in your case would just power the fans at 12 volts, Unless you purchase 4 pin PWM fans. Also notice on the close up pics, only one fan has one header with a RPM reading.

First off the only difference between a 4 pin header and a 3 pin is that last pin is used for Pulse Width Modulation for precise fan speed control. In your case that pin would be left open and the other 3 pins are the same (power, ground and RPM). I have never tried using a Y adapter to power...

I'm in the process of picking / scrounging the parts to build mine, The only PIII I still have laying around is a dually, may go with an Athlon. Win98 FTW!

Actually the list price for that PSU is $49.99. At least they are high temp (105C), keep em cool and they should be fine. I work in the coin op industry, we have Motherboards / PSU's from the early 90's still running 24/7. Bad caps may not be as big of an issue as it once was, but if your's...

Really? Corsair uses CapXon caps in their PSU's? I'd throw some better caps in there while you got it open, especially after all that modding

That's the only way I've ever tried it, plugging the drive in, turning the machine on, then seeing if it was detected by the BIOS

Thanks for all the info, glad to be back! I would vote the DC section of the [H] best "tech support" in the world!

I guess SETI has a soft spot in my heart being the first DC project I ran, I remember having it running on like 4 computers in my bedroom on all the screens, I knew I was hooked. I also remember FoldServer being my first entry into the PXE world, and having to get an [H] member (I'm so bad with...

Thanks for the warm welcome back, I didn't realize how much I missed DC projects. What are some recommendations for BIONC projects that can be ran on older equip (at least the ones I listed so far) and I'd like to stick to cancer and or medical research if possible. After I get that going I...

So what's changed since... ah hell I never was a "folding expert", I've been in and out of it for about 10 years. I've always made due with whatever hardware I could get my hands on (e.g. my cousins get a new SNES, We bought their old NES). I have a humble home network that still includes a...

I have a Gateway E-9520T Server, I have been trying to install any drive in the front cages to no avail. So far I have been running from the onboard SATA connector (Mobo has them labeled as SATA0 and SATA5), although when testing I disconnect this OS Drive. I have tried multiple drives (making...

Actually I am shorting the green wire (PWR ON) to ground with the relay contacts, and the coil is just wired to the 12v on the first PSU. I've never heard of using the grey wire (PWR GOOD) as a trigger. AFAIK the PWR Good signal is initially LOW ( 0v ) until the power supply has stabilized all...
