Help please, Need 12 V DC Power Supply for ATX Mainboard

[acgozali]

Hello guys,
Can any of you share to me, how to make a 12 VDC Power supply for ATX Mainboard, [ any Diagrams or web site links] .

Since i am going to take my PC to a small village that does't have any electricity.
We just don't want to using an Inverter, because the power is so small and we think to using Solar Cell and 12 V Accu to power it up.

Regards and Many Thanks in Advance

Andy,

The ATX main board or motherboard uses several different voltages one of these is +12Volts. Your computer won

Ante, do computers need voltages other than +-12V and +-5V? Because I remember there was also +3,3V... ???

Yes, 3.3V is also needed for some. Look at the following link. This might be what you are looking for...
