Re: How does one hotwire an old pSU?

[Ben Devine]

So far I have got out my multimeter and found from the molex connectors i can get three voltages. +5v, 7v, +12v,
The seven volts is from using the +5 and +12v think 12-5 = 7 (learnt that from a electrical theory book i got out of the library). The motherboard connectors Iam pretty sure from past experinces with the internet that i can get 3.5v and 15v of a powersuppy but im not sure if it is Atx or the old style one. But I've got to figure out how much load
i have to have on it so it doesn't burnout.

Hi list,

I want to make a bench to power supply out of one of my old Power
Supplies Prior to the current one (is it atx) What wires does one have
to cross so it doesn't need to be plugged into a motherboard.

Any help Appreciated.
