hi there iv got a spare at power surpply can some one tell me how i can get it 2 power it with out using a motherboard so i can use it 2 power my ck3

good question, i actually had the remains of an external hard drive case enclosure that works perfectly with powering up the CK3 lite, but i had the same question you had as well till i found the remains to the case enclosure.

The AT poewr supply has it's own on/off switch, so it's pretty simply to connect up a CK3. Just plug in the molex connecter from the AT power supply to the CK3, plug the AT in the wall outlet, then turn on the switch to the AT power supply. Wa-la, your CK3 is powered.

Alternatively if its a newer atx supply you can bridge the green wire to the adjacent black and it will power up then follow sadalius' advice and bobs your uncle.



EDIT: Corrected the image and BTW, who's Bob?? sadalius

English saying. Not quite sure where it came from because i haven't got an uncle bob

Spot on. It was the only way i could stop my ck3 resetting the pc everytime i turned it off and on. Connected it to a spare atx instead of one of my pc's molex connectors and problem solved.
