| The hacking of a 49 way.... the cable |

I FINALLY found a good cable to work with a sinister 49 way controller! I got Daves 49way controller (works GREAT!) but I couldn't find any way to neatly hack it. I couldn't find any cable ends that fit. Well.. I finally took it in the basement and started looking at all the outdated crap... and I found it! Find an old pre-atx power supply and cut off the power -> the motherboard. Both sides (there where two) fit PERFECT! Right number of pins! Perfect size! and the wire works great with Daves board. Anyway, I now have a VERY nice and clean looking cable job... without crimping a thing! |

Any pics? Or are you just teasing us... |

Those are called an "AT" Power-Supply. They have a pair of 6-pin conectors. |

Sorry, I don't think I can take pictures. It was BEAUTIFUL hack.. but I ended up using electrical tape and screwing it down on the underside of the control panel... because I just wanted to mount it quick... And I didn't have any optioins at the time :) |

Thanks for the heads up! :) I keep seeing my two 49-way (one sinistar, one happs) sitting on the work table just begging to be used. :'( I know I have an old AT power box somewhere around here... |
