Just started gutting an old PC, got everything out except the two disk drives and the power supply. I don't know what to do with the power supply tho. If i take it out there is going to be a huge hole, if i leave it in it takes up valuable grow room.

I already cut all the wires from the power supply, so heres my next question. I got a fan off the motherboard, how can i run this/get power into the box without it looking fishy?

I think you should have left the wires on the Power supply, well at least the 24 Pin one. I know if strip in the ends of the wires on the fan and plug them into the 24 pin connector it will work, BUT im not to sure what slots they are. I read on here, in another thread, which ones too but i forgot. But im sure you can always hook it up to a battery or something.

Yeah, that's what i figured, i do have another power supply thats smaller, but i don't feel like getting it to fit. Now i have to go about sealing it off so no light can escape. Thats going to require a bit of ingenuity and duct tape.

Oh, for the lights, hows about a good way to introduce the cord without it looking weird?

Look up Mr. Micro's thread on Icmag.com called "The Nanomachine" in the micro section. By far without a shadow of a doubt THE BEST PC design I've ever seen...
