    Hi Guys,
    Going to be sleeving my PSU soon and don't want to pay £10 for a tool i will possibly never use again. I can remove the pins from the Floppy and AUX connectors but can't remove them from the others. Any help appreciated :D

    Thanks

    ...you can use a tiny screwdriver or a needle.
    See, take the molex wire for example. The plug of each wire looks like a wood plug with wings where you screw your screws into. But it's metal =o.....so get your needle between the inside casing of the molex and the wing and push it back in, to that to all other wings of that wire. When you're done, pull at the wire (a lil' bit of strength is ok, but not too much)

    an other but ingenious (taken from a Tweakers member) way is to use the hollow connector of an ear headphone. Just push the plug into the connector and pull it out.

    Since you're not having any joy, and KustomPC is currently out of stock, if you e-mail me your home address I'll lend you mine.

    (And don't y'all go asking for my tools now, y'hear? This is a one-off favour. :D )
