My power supply died in this computer but i am confused on which type i need. It is a atx power supply but the blown power supply has the standard P1 atx connector but it also has a P11 connector that looks similar to the old at power connector that has 6 pins, and the 4 pin pentium 4 connector. I just want to make sure i know what type i need before i purchase a new one.

I think you will find that the P11 six pin connector is for SATA drives. SATA require the same four power leads as ATA but I think you will find that two of them are unused in the conector you have.

The 6 pin P11 connector on this power supply has 1 red 2 orange and 3 black wires, and the power supply has the seperate square 4 pin Pentium 4 connector. The power supply that blew was a HIPRO Model: HP-U340HF3 Max Output 340W. IBM P/N:24P6810. I want something better than 340W if I can find one with those connectors as I got a lot of devices running off this machine. Best Buy didn't have any, and if they did they would have to special order it.
