I recently bought a brand new old stock AT case and throught it came with its own PSU. Upon opening it up I found that the PSU inside was actually, well, just a PSU case with the cable to the case switch attached and a fan inside - no board, components etc. I don't know if that was the norm back in the days, but regardless, I went out and bought myself two new old stock AT PSUs:
No AT switch on the end of the black cable, but four connectors that are apparently supposed to connect to the switch on the case.. But the switch on my case appears to be soldered to the cable from the empty motherboard, it looks like this:
What to do here? Remove the switch and cable from the empty PSU and replace the one in here with that? Or detach the case switch from the empty psu's cable and solder the connectors on this one to the switch somehow?
Yes, I never did this in an AT case before, I thought it would have been a lot more straightforward 😒
