Intel D915PBL (775 3.4GHz) + PSU Question

LMS79
Hi! New user, 1st post. I've just purchased an Intel D915PBL MB and am wondering about this ALTERNATE POWER CONNECTOR. I have a 450 Watt PSU and it doesn't have one of these connectors. Can I simply use one of the IDE power connectors? It has a 20-pin power source, but I have a 20-pin to 24-pin adapter.

How do you open the back of a pc?

soccodog
I have an old packard bell (1998) and it was just fine until we moved & I think the movers played football with it. My pc guy where I used to live said to check inside but didnt remember how he opened it when he gave my an extra hard drive for just this kind of emergency.
