thanks! got 'em to work last night. HDD now partitioned ready for XP install.
though still plenty free slots from the PSU, used that feedthru (coupled w/ 4pin) to power the frontfan as my mobo ECS GeForce6100PM-M2 has only one to feed system fan.
the two main power cables are clever (puzzled me before i looked closer). 24pin & 8pin convertible to 20pin (i don't need) & 4pin (i need) by splitting 'em at the connector.
i used ATA133 HDD and cannot mount it on the side coz ribbon cable cannot reach it if IDE optical drive (DVD) will be slaved. (mobo has no secondary IDE slot). so i mounted it in the FDD slot. --holes for the screw are not as fit as that on the side mount.
And boy, cables are now pretty tight! ribbon cable at elbow with the thick 12pin cable.
and so it goes.
more power to you jedihobbit. |
