PSU

[bodezafa]

I have a Duron 800 and am getting a ASUS A7V-E today. 2 Quantom HDD's 15 & 30 gig, a cdrom and a cdrw diamond viper v770 with a fan, sound blaster live value,3Com nic,Ati tv wonder. 92mm fan in front of the case and a 82mm fan in back, and a good sized fan in heat sink,and 1 hdd coller with 2 fans,all on a 250w psu! Now on the old system it worked fine (asus p5a and AMD k6 3 450 @ 550 2.8 volts). From what I read this is too much. I have another 250 psu I can add for like the fans but I dont know what pins on the psu plug to jump to get it to turn on without a mobo, letalone to turn on with the mobo(so I dont have to turn it off and on manualy). Any body know how to do this? aAnd what do you think would be a good split of equipment for each psu.

Thanx in advance.
