Q:I have a hard drive that has an enclosure is there any way to take an internal 3.5hard drive and convert it to an only usb cable portable hard drive with no power cord?

No. Not a 3.5 hard drive. You can do it with a 2.5 laptop drive because the drive mechanics and electronics require less power. A 3.5 drive requires too much power for USB to provide. Though... In the near future, you will see USB ports that are capable of supplying more power than the standard .5 amps that USB currently provides. So after they come out, you might see it being a possibility then.

Q:my cable often gets unplugged soo im really worried that i may loose 280 dollars?

Yes, power failures can be associated with voltage spikes that can cause damage to the PC and its components. Buy a decent surge protector or extension cord with a built in surge protector, and use this to power your PC.

Q:I had bought a new stereo for my Dodge Neon, had installed it, and everything worked great for a couple days. Later my stereo was no longer getting power, I took it out to try to find out the problem. The power cable from the battery to the stereo is no longer intact. The little metal pin in the middle(no, I don't know exactly what it's called) broke off! I have no idea how, or even where it is, all I know is that it's gone and I don't know what to do! Is this a replaceable car part? If so, where do I find a new part, or where would I take my car to get the best help and possible answers? Would it be better to take it to a mechanic or to a stereo installation shop?

the cables are not a life and run away from the dash , that never happends, and if the cable is there its not broken the power comes from the ignition switch not the battery , so you have a bad fuse or bad ignition switch most likely it is only a fuse, did you know there are 2 boxes ? check both

Q:I lost my PS3 power cable but I got one from an old pc and it does work but am i better off using my old cable?Does it affect my PS3's performance?

Mmm well a cable is a cable if it is a three pin one then it is fine. With powercables you need a certain thickness of the cable for safety. PC cables are able to run 1000Watt... so a 200Watt console is no trouble.

Q:Electrical equipment installation project "power cable laying" cable cross-sectional area refers to the cable cross-sectional area, or refers to the copper core cross-sectional area, such as 3 × 25mm2 refers to 25mm. 75mm2 or cable cross-sectional area of 490mm2? More

Said cross-linked polyethylene insulation, double steel armor, PVC outer jacket. Voltage level 0.6 to 1 kV, 5 core, cross section 10 square millimeters. About four centimeters in diameter.

Q:My old card only needed one of these cables. but my new 4870 will need two. can i just use a IDE-to-PCI-e power cable? its only got 3 wires out of the 6 though. does this matter?

That potential supply is right for that card... do not hardship approximately it... The 4890 takes much less potential than a 4870 and my previous equipment with a 4870 relatively purely used 330W with dissimilar 120mm case followers a 92mm and an 80mm... in case you have already got that PSU then save it....

Q:I'm trying to install my radeon x800 xl graphics card into my dell inspiron 531 desktop. After inserting the card in the pci-e slot, and connecting the monitor cord to the card, I thought everything would work fine. I booted the computer and I got the error quot;You have not connected the power cable to your video cardquot;What do I need to do? This is an older video card, and I may have lost this supposed power cable. I'm lost with this and my computer won't even boot now. Any help is much appreciated. I'm willing to buy this power cord if i need to.

there are lots of connectors coming off PC power supplies that provide 12V and can likely drive your graphics card. So if you want to get really brave and do some soldering you can probably make it work. For example, if you're not using your floppy, you can chop off that connector and wire it to your card.

Q:I recently replaced my 300W Bestec power supply with a 600W corsair power supply. the 600W electric cable (the one that goes to the wall outlet) is too short, can i use the power cable of the 300W power supply ?

hardship examining your question. Are you asserting which you have microprocessor that hangs once you're utilising a generator? is the generator powering the microprocessor? sure, interestingly that noise spikes or another noise from the generator is inflicting the reminiscence interior the processor to be changed. Is the processor in a shielded field? the ability grant? Are there any filters on the generator? all of those can help. Are there any archives lines linked to the processor? they could be the best suspects. they might could be shielded.

Q:I forgot the power cable for my PS3 at a friends house and was wondering if the power cable from my computer would work. It would fit and everything, but would it mess up the system?

Yah, It will work, but your computer wont XD. Use it temporarily and get your cable back A.S.A.P.
