I cut off one of hard drive power supply ends and was left with 4 wires. I then took my meter and checked the voltage on them. You can get 5v or 12v off of these wires. Simply run the 2 wires from your trackball to two of these (depending on desired voltage) and it should work fine. I power both coin door and trackball off of a 12v feed from this computer power supply.
: How did you wire it? Do you mean you wired it into one of the cables coming off the power supply? If so, did you wire up both of the connectors on the light?
