This will be a site you will want to read real good, good information here.
The conversion info is all the way to the bottom and left.

if you search you'll find one of my numerous posts on the subject. I've converted 2 PSU's for R/C use and it is simply, cost effective, and simple too (with my way you don't even need to open the case! and it costs under $30!)

Pretty much all newer power supplies are the new ATX ones, dont follow the batteryclinic or marcee site for them (the articles are the same), use [link=http://web2.murraystate.edu/andy.batts/ps/POWERSUPPLY.HTM]this[/link] one like rcxboy said, I followed the batteryclinic article for a newer atx conversion and fried a power supply before I read up and learned about sense wires.
