Thanks for the reply, I would prefer the relay method as I am very sure my wife will forget to switch on the AT psu when she uses my PC :P

So can I assume that the relay must have at least 6 terminals, 2 for the ATX 12v and 4 for the wires from the AT switch? Do I get a 12vdc (coil voltage?) SPST, DPST,DPDT or 4DPT relay? What ratings should the coil resistance, contact volatge, contact current be?
