E50 resurrection

[Lamboley]

Does anyone know the pinouts of the PS1 and PS2 power supply connectors and of the panel status A and B connectors of a E50 motherboard ?

I have got an old E50 netserver without power supply, cover, and cables but with motherboard, processor, memory, HDD, CDROM and floppy drives, and I would like to bring it round at a low coast.

These informations are not published into documentations about E50 I have found on the HP site.

I have identify some of the 12 pins of the PS2 connector (+5V, +12V, ground), and one of the 6 pins of the PS1 connector (ground), but I need to know the use of the other pins : I have an ATX Power supply and I thing it will be possible to connect it to the motherboard.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Try Google for "24-Pin ATX power supply". There should be a spec, somewhere. Also, you can simply buy this type of supply if you want.

The power connector is a standard, although most PC's use the 20-Pin connector because they don't need as much power.

Your 20-pin ATX supply is probably enough for the E50, unless you plan to power a lot of disks.

Sorry, I can't help on the panel connectors.
