    Hey I had a computer exactly like that. I believe that's an HP Pavilion XT 923.
    I made a power supply out of a PC for an older LCD TV that ran on 12 volts. I took off every one of the wires coming out of it and connected the original power cable for the TV to the 12 volt rail and wired an on off switch to the PS_on green wire and the common wires. It looks very neat. the only wire coming out is the power cable for the TV.

    Cool stuff. I have a small bookcase that I have all of electronics in and needless to say they overheat. Now I can use my old PS from my PC and the fans from it to add ventilation to my small cabinet. !!

    Why you did not use limiting resistor 10 ohm 10 watts between 5 volts and ground?

    Does the green/black wire bridge have to be conected all the time? or does it just have to be pulsed lets say with a pulse push booton switch? thanks

      siegfriedo brabender I would think a pulse would work, what are you trying to turn on for only a few seconds?

      +siegfriedo brabender pusle buttom givs the signal to motherboard, not to ps. and then motherboard controls the ps :)

    It requires an amp to amplify signal and requires special connector on back of audio side.

    if you don't have the green wire on your power supply it is the grey wire.... put grey and black together and it will work!!

    plenty of choices from the PC power supply. Still keep old printer etc power bricks often you'll find you'll have a compliment of 6,9,12,18,21 &36 V supplys sitting in your drawers.

    • @doublewide6

      Your standard 12V DC wall transformer does not have the wattage to run a car radio, but I know this power supply will.
