Hi all,
I'm building my carputer, and chose a shuttle xpc SN25P, which seems to have it's own funky power supply that is possibly not compatible with the opus. It has 2 plugs which have "12Vsb" (for 12 Volt standby?) wires and ground wires on them. No 3.3 V lines, no -12V lines, just +12V "standby" lines.
Can I safely ignore the "standby" bit because that will make it a lot easier to just hook up a +12V line to it from a normal power supply? Is the standby just for the soft power on?
Shuttle pinout here:

I would like to adapt an existing car Power supply such as the Opus to deal with this motherboard, or make my own, since it IS 12 volts.
Could I have some assistance / tips on how to adapt an ATX or ATX+12V power supply to this, or does anyone know of a power supply I could purchase to support this computer?
Thanks!

A description of the power supply in Shuttle "P" series cases is here:

(that computer has the same power supply)

Opus makes a 12V, 150W power supply for the car, as do several other companies, but they all use ATX connectors. Can I cut the wires, solder on the new connectors with the relevant +12V Voltage feed, and ignore the standby bit?
