Re: Putting the A4000 into a Power Tower Mark II

I have also bought the Mirage 4000 Pro tower, but I didn't have any problems installing my motherboard in the tower.

But I have a problem with my audio sockets. The sound is very low when I use the PSU from the Tower, but when I use my original PSU from my A4000 desktop, there are no problems. Have anyone done a hack on this tower, to make their audio listenable?

Thank you very much for your information.

After I posted the subject, I also started pulling everything apart and reassemble everything all over. I came to the same conclusion as you, that one of the wires aren't working correct. My problems are with a yellow and blue wire in the ATX-AT adaptor from Elbox. I have written an email to them because it's their responsiblility to get it working.

I can't see anything broken in the adaptor, and I can't get the plugs out :-( If I could I would have used the old connector.

Anyone knows how much a new adaptor costs?

I can't get the wires any further down the sockets, so I'm sure it's a problem with the PSU and/or the ATX-AT converter...

BTW, is the audio lower in A4000 than in A1200? I have an A1200, and as i forgot to turn my speakers down I got a chock when I started an MP3 on the A1200. It sounds to me as if the sound on the A1200 is way higher than on the A4000, even though I wriggled my wires and got the highest sound possible on the A4000?
