I am building a 12-bay CD duplicator. I have a case with an Enermax 650W ATX power supply. I also have a Wytron CD duplicator controller board. It does not have a standard ATX power header. So the problem is, I cannot use the power button on the front of my case to turn on the power supply. I have to jump the pins on the ATX power connector to get the power supply to even power up.

Is there a way to hook up the front power button to the power supply? Do I need a different type of power supply? I can jump the leads on the power connector with a paper clip, but long-term, there has to be a more elegant solution. Ideas?

Why not just wire up a momentary switch to do that same thing?
