    Hi,
    I picked up a psu from a fair, but i have now found it has wires missing somehow - PWR ok (pin8) and -5v (pin18)
    No whats the deal, will it work, can it be made to work, is it knackered?
    I neeeed it cos its super small :)

    if i were you i would go to my motherboard manufacture's website and look for the power requirments then u can find out if the motherboard uses those voltages, i suspect athlon mothboards use -5v so the psu may be incompatable, alternativly drop them an email....
