Hello everyone.
I just got a Dell I530-110B Quad Core-6Gigs RAM
I have an Emu 1820M Audio Interface(Sound Card).
I do Music Production/Mixing/Mastering/Recording.
I had the Emu 1820M PCI Soundcard in an older EMachine T3256.
The Sound Card requires that I connect to the P-Connector, to power the sound card of course.
However, the P-Connector in the new Dell computer, is very thin.
Below you can see what I currently have, and what is in the Dell.
Before I start splicing wires, Is there an adapter to allow me to connect the larger 4 Prong P6 connector, to the more slender P6 connector in the dell???
Also, if I do splice the wires, what is the Orange wire for on the new "thin" P-Connector? I would only splice into the Red/Black/Black/Yellow wires.
