Asus xonar DX sound card problems

[applefern]

I have installed a sound card in my HP pavillion 7610 slinline desktop,, needs power supply to back edge of card to work,,Can you help with connection/location/lead type please

Apparently you need a floppy drive power connector. You should have got a floppy drive power to molex converter with the sound card. That's all I can find out at the moment.

Well I never! first time I've seen a sound card with it's own power connector!

The connector is the same as the ones used on floppy disk drive drives, so inside the computers case you'll have to see what spare power connectors you have,

if you have a spare SATA type connector (which looks like this)

Then you'll need one of these..

If you have a molex (IDE) type connector (which looks like this)
