Here's a picture of the supply.
Here's a picture of the high speed fan I bought from Radio Shack many years ago. Makes a heck of a racket on 12 volts, but runs much quieter on +5Vdc while still moving enough air.
Now I did power up the supply and verified the voltages were the same as what the PC needs. So I will remove the large 20 pin connector and splice in the 10 pin connector. The supply has a four pin that is long enough and the same pinout so I won't need to splice in the original four pin. It does follow the standard power supply wire color scheme so it's as simple as connecting the same colored wires to each other.
Also the supply has some SATA power plugs so I won't need the molex to SATA adapters the original supply used and it has two 6 pin PCI-E connectors and one 8 pin connector.
I do think I'll do this at work tomorrow where I have access to better soldering tools and the proper heat shrink.
Now normally I would go inside a power supply and remove all unused wiring, but I don't want to do that with this supply.
I also have a +5 volt powered USB hub. I'm thinking of either using a male molex connector from a Y splitter and connecting the hub to that or just directly wiring it into a +5 volt wire. That way I don't need the small power brick it came with.
This is just a start. Once I get the money for a suitable video card I will finish it up.
The supply itself ran for the most part 24/7 for maybe 9 years with no problems whatsoever. The main reason for the high speed fan was to keep the supply as cool as possible. The reason I like Antec is because of how reliable that power supply has been. In fact if the replacement hard drive had not given me a problem in 2017 that I so far haven't been able to fix, the XP pc would still be running right now. At the time when I got a better laptop I had pretty much relegated the XP PC to more of a server role as I had important folders shared to the network and it worked fine for that.
EDIT:
It's a good thing I opened the power supply to make sure all the dust is cleaned out of it as I noticed two bulging caps.
Will have to get their values and voltage and order them.
The supply itself has a whole board dedicated to filtering the incoming AC supply.
For the fan I connected it temporarily to the built in thermal fan controller of the supply just to see how fast the fan would run. It is at 3.9Vdc and has a pot to I guess control the sensitivity of the thermal sensor. I set it to where the max voltage would be output which was about 3.96Vdc. Seemed to move a decent amount of air.
When I get the caps replaced I'll try it as is and see how hot the supply gets. If it runs what I think is too warm I'll try running the fan on +12Vdc with a resistor to reduce the voltage to around 7Vdc if I can do so safely.
Now because I didn't want to be without this PC, I pulled the supply from the PC needing a backlight driver and cable and I cut the 10 pin connector off it. The supply in this good PC will go in that one.
All wiring for the external supply will pass through the hole where the IEC jack is now.
