    Question How to turn on PSU without shorting it?

    Thanks everyone for the answers, I have found adapters for it but the site looks sketchy and it's old. I will keep on searching for a PSU that has the 6 pin AUX connector and the 20 pin one. The PSU I have only has the 20+4pins but it doesn't start without the aux connector plugged in.

    Question How to turn on PSU without shorting it?

    Yes, but I cannot find any PSU that has the connector anywhere in my country nor any adapter, the last option is to buy a motherboard that doesn't have the connector but still has Slot 1 for pentium 3.

    No, it doesn't, i said it wrong, sorry, I cut a sata connector on the PSU and wired the 6 pin auxiliary that the old motherboard needs but it doesnt get power because the PSU is off and I cannot turn on the MB if the auxiliary (on sata wires) doesn't get power.

    Question How to turn on PSU without shorting it?

    Hello! I have a PSU, and because it lacks a connector for an old motherboard, I improvised one from a dead PSU and a sata cable but after doing it I realized that the working PSU doesn't send power to the sata cables if it is not turned on. Can anyone help me find a solution to start a PSU so it...

    Question Graphic cards artifacts

    I wanted to use this GPU for an older build, with a core 2 duo but I was testing it on the specified PC. Another issue is that windows doesn't want to use the GPU drivers because it says it reported errors and windows stopped using it. Code 43 i think. I will just abandon this GPU as I don't...

    Question Graphic cards artifacts

    Thanks! I will try and change the capacitor with a different one and see! If it is the same issue, should I put it in the oven at 180°C for 10 minutes? Heard that it works sometimes as a temporary fix.

    Yeah, I know, but for GTA IV it runs well, it just doesn't load the textures bc of the lack of memory that it has.
