fuzzywasaduck2 Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I've just bought this mobo (2nd hand), but it didn't come with the said adapter. My PSU only has a 4 pin (2x2) P4 connecter, which according to the instruction manual, is OK as long as I use the adapter :censored2: Now, I have AN adapter which takes a 8pin (2x4) from the PSU and puts it out to 2 4pin (2x2) - presumably for dual CPUs. I can re-wire this to MAKE the adapter. Can someone describe how the adapter reconfigures the wires, or possibly upload a pic? Any help will be much appreciated - I'd love to get this thing up and running Thanks Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/77541-badaxe-2-owners-i-need-urgent-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzywasaduck2 Posted December 23, 2007 Author Share Posted December 23, 2007 Bump To be clear - I need to make an adapter to go from the 4pin CPU 12v rail to an 8pin This adapter comes with the mobo (but not with mine) - I need to know what it does - how the wires get reconfigured Really hope this makes sense Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/77541-badaxe-2-owners-i-need-urgent-help/#findComment-548788 Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuzzywasaduck2 Posted December 24, 2007 Author Share Posted December 24, 2007 Thanks for this - as it turns out, my problems were bigger than a simple cable 2 pins on the CPU socket were down - repaired one, but the other was to bent to repair - had a good go though It's a dark christmas eve for me Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/77541-badaxe-2-owners-i-need-urgent-help/#findComment-550359 Share on other sites More sharing options...
