Thanks for the offers guys and I may take you up on them, but heading out of town tomorrow to my sister-in-law's for Thanksgiving and won't be benching for a while anyway. You guys rock.

Here's what happened:
Blank screen, followed by an inexplicable and building sense of doom......then a loud pop and smoke from the PSU. It was set to 12.03v.

Take 2 wires strip of enough to shove them down into the top of the ATX plug so they touch the pin on the top. Add a little electricians dope into the top of the 24 pin plug so you can move it or not. Dont really need nothing TBH, when I had a permenaent solution I used superglue. Trimmed the wires off when I was done. . connect pins 14 and 15 to 14 and 15 of the other. (green and black)

It does not have to be a good or high amperage connection. Just get the signal across.
