I bought a new PSU & Y adapter for my old PC. The PC has 2 drives, a SATA HDD, a spare internal IDE HDD & the PSU has:
1 x 20 Pin Molex Power Connector
2 x 4 Pin Molex Power Connector
3 x 4 Pin Molex Connector
1 x 4 Pin Berg Connector (Floppy drive connector)
This is a diagram of the mobo:
From the PSU, I've connected:
The 20 Pin Molex Power Connector to ATXPW1 of the mobo.
1 4 Pin Molex Power Connector to ATX12V1 of the mobo.
2 of the 4 Pin Molex Connector, which were connected to each other, to the DVD drives
The 3rd 4 Pin Molex Connector to a Y adapter which connects to the IDE & SATA HDDs
The SATA HDD connects via SATA cable to SATA1 of the mobo.
If you don't know what some of those things are above, see these illustrations:

Please check everything to see what else I need to do! I have an IDE cable and I don't know what it's for.
