I wouldnt use the 2nd PSU to power the aux power, this as far as i have seen is usually from the same power supply

so

by getting a newer ATX p4 compatible 300 or higher watt supply you will get the required connectors to properly do what you want.

I know that the motherboard monitor is sometimes not exactly accurate for measuring the voltage. I suggest going to radioshack or an electronics store, even canadian tire..... and puck up a cheap analog or digital volt meter... go digital if you can. there are cheap ones for arround $20 tha dont have many functions.
