I cannot confirm the 4k has a 45 Watt PSU but I can say that a standard PSU for a PC is not a standard thing. I pulled a 130Watt PSU out of a Compaq POS with k6-2 400MHZ just the other day. I have seen old Dell computers with 65Watt PSU and i286. Now when you're talkin Athlon and P3 you wont see anything less than 250watt. but the newer Athlons and P4 will have 350 to 400 watt.
I don't understand what these guys are saying about "pumping" too much power into the mobo if the Wattage of the PSU is larger. What that says to me is that if you cross the 5 and 12 V you get more smoke.
Also, Hook the damn drive up to the Floppy connector and use a bigger PSU...
Problem solved
