Please don't destroy a working A500/A1200 Power Supply - The French Amiga Repair Center has the ends necessary to make adapters available for around $5. They shipped me one quickly and I built an ATX to A500/A1200 adapter with it and some inexpensive wire.

I wrapped it all up in the plastic sheath from a large power cable and electrical taped it together. It looks decent for 30 minutes work.


Is there a site that shows the wiring diagram for this?  How do you fool an atx power supply into thinking there's a motherboard there?

Thanks.  I have a bid on an a500 power supply on ebay.  If the price goes too high, I'll make the connector.  I have a dead atx motherboard and matching power supply.  Maybe I can desolder the atx connector and make a little circuit board.  I also found a post with a link to this place in france selling the square amiga power connectors.
