[QUOTE="flintstone99, post: 702339, member: 72866"] Hi, rebuilding my infrastructure and moving to a client server environment. The existing server (based on windows home server) only has on PCI slot, so I purchased a Technotrend DVB-S2 3600 USB TV card. It came with an external 12V DC power supply. At the moment the power supply (and obviously the attached TV card) is always on, while I hibernate the server with the lightout WHS plugin (works fine for me). I want to power up/down the TV card along with the server and as the card is powered with 12VDC, I thought the easiest option was to connect it to the 12VDC coming from the server power supply. Is this actually possible or is the 12VDC from the switching power supply not usable for this? thanks for any comments regards flintstone [/QUOTE]
