A few questions....on the MCR PS there are x3 15 pin molex jams and on the adapter there is only space for 2. The manual does not specify which is left off, its just says:

"This is a simple one; connect the mating connectors from the old power supply hookup to the
adapter. The adapter uses 3 of the 4 connections. The fourth will just be left hanging."

Seriously? Great instructions.

Also....Tron doesnt use -5vdc right?
 
I think if I remember correctly there is really only 2 15 pin connections, and 1 9 pin. This is Wizzies connector correct? There should be 2 15 pin slots like you say, and a 3 pin deal I think. I have this in my Journey. I also have the atx mcr switcher from Spaeth, but that one wouldnt give me sound on any of my MCR games, (I think its junk, but who cares).

Ill check the Journey tonight to be sure, but I think theres only 2 15 pin connectors, and 1 3 pin thats used with the wizzies kit.

have a look at that, thats what you should have in your tron now, and theres only 2 15 pin connectors.
 
I have zero experience with the product, but can't you just compare wire colors in the connectors to the close up picture in the manual. I think it would be the bunch that mainly comes from the bottom of the cabinet transformer type parts that would be left hanging.
Please let us know if you get a humming sound with the upgrade.
