Can I put a new style 24pin ATX power connector to an old AT

KHO

I have an old computer that accepts a 2 split 12 pin connector for the Main power supply on the board

For the life of me, I cannot find the answer to this question on google, nor can I find an old style AT PSU. But can I connect a new style 24pin(or 20+4pin as is the case) to this safely?

No you can't connect those at all, even if you could rewire the pins, the voltage and amps are different, you would risk shorting out your MB. If you have a local goodwill store or another type of resale shop, I would stop by those and you will more than likely find a PS that you need. I get tons of those older computers from storage auctions and I give them away to goodwill.

Thanks for the advice! I was lucky and found like a $7 USD one with $10 shipping on ebay. Not too bad, probably cheaper then picking a computer up from goodwill. These things are hard to track down!
