I need a connector that allows a 4 pin to connect to a 3 pin floppy adapter any help? Does anyone know where I can get something like this?

idk it might come out of the power button because when I plug in my PSU to my motherboard and the other various connections, it doesnt turn on so its not the DVD drive like the previous thread said

I'm at a loss to identify that connector if it isn't a floppy. If you can be sure it is +12V and chassis ground, I'd consider cutting the end off and splicing it to a Molex connector to fit the PSU's.

I don't have any idea how to do that, do you know of a place I can take it where it can be done by someone who knows what they are doing?

You don't know how to splice 2 wires?
Does the system function properly with that connector left hanging? If so, just leave it.

How many wires are connected to that plug? If it is just 2, it probably is + and - 12V. If it were me, I'd just cut the odd-ball plug off and splice it into a 4 pin Molex connector. Then plug that into one of the Molex connectors from the PSU. You can find connector kits for the Molex plugs online:
