AT to ATX conversion. I have a large AT case that I would liVe to keep and change the mother board to ATX. How do I change the power supply to ATX from AT. Once I change the power supply, the ATX Board is easy. HELP

What you would have to do is make the ATX PSU fit, and screwing in new holes for it. Also, you would need to mod in fan holes for cooling.
And finally, you would add screw holes for the mobo.
Edit-Do you mean changing the pins on the PSU? I don't think that can be done. Something that would be easier would to buy a new PSU that's ATX.

Why don't you just buy an ATX case? You can get a decent one for $30...

your going to have bigger problems when trying to fit a atx motherboard into a at case, things just won't fit right, also to turn the power on and off won't work eather with out some modifications, there just is too many things differant in the two types of cases and motherboards.
