20pin powersupplies sometimes work in the 24pin motherboards. You won't know for sure till you try it or someone else in here has.
If it doesn't just get a EPS12V true550

is there an adapter available or is it rewireable to a 24 pin.
failing this what do you think of the Tagan 480?

It's made for that so I don't see why it wouldn't.
It's a pretty cheap item anyway so it wouldn't hurt to try.
