i need help and fast. i bought a 20 in PSU and i didnt know the MOBO was a 24 pin. i think the PC wont start up cuz it needs the extra 4 pins to plug the power cable into. where can i get a converter to use to make the 20 pin PSU into a 24 pin?

I have an Asus P5VD1-X with a 24pin ATX Power connector and a PSU which only has a 20pin connector, I can plug it into the motherboard and it works.

Have you tried matching the shapes and plugging it in?
