Car Amp and Computer Power Supply?

Hey guys.. I need some help.. I had to take all of my audio crap out of my car so I had room for taking **** back to school..

Now I have an abundance of expensive heavy things, doing nothing..

My question is how can I use an old computer power supply to give power to my amplifier? I've seen it done with some kids at school.. and I was wondering if anyone had any idea what you need to do?

Thanks

Yeah You can... the Yellow Wire off of a Molex (4 pin) connector is a 12volt lead... the Red is a 5volt...

Good Luck and Have fun...

BTW... I would suggest atleast a 300W PSU (AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT OPEN THE PSU)
