Take a picture of the plug (the pin holes)? Some plugs are actually made in a way that makes it nearly impossible to remove. In some cases, you have to cut the plug apart.
Can't figure out how to remove atx pins
Someone please explain to me what I'm doing wrong :shrug:
I'm using this double sided tool from frozen cpu.

So I'm doing exactly what they show on the murdermodz site to the atx in order to remove the pins. Unfortunately it's not working at all. I tried this on a psu, extension, and other cables. I used both the double and single side. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong :shrug: :shakes:

Okay, I'll take a picture now. Thaks for responding so quickly ducky. I thought all of the pins were the same, but now I know.

Update. I got one out

There are two tabs on the outside of the pin that have to be pushed in.
The 2 prong tool needs to be jammed on the outside of the pin, not inside.. Then pull hard on the wire.. should come out.
case closed.. thanks everyone!
