Can it be done ?

I have about 4, 200w PSU's but they all have AT type connectors. I have a motherboard that needs a ATX type connection to the psu. Can I make/buy some sort of adapter to do this ?

I want it to run my ol' AMD450/AopenAX59pro Combo so 200w psu will do fine.

I would rather make one myself than buy one because I would imagine they would be 10 or 15 bucks, and I can pick up a chepo PSU for about 25 & tax CDN funds.

Anyone out there that could give me a little direction in completing this task.

Thanks
Wayne

I really don't know if it can be done, or if it CAN be done...if it would be wise. Hoot will read this and he'll be able to tell you. I don't think there is anything he doesn't know about PSUs. :)
 
If it was even possible, it really wouldn't be worth the time and effort to match up the signal cables to make an AT work inan ATX box.
