The kind that goes with ATI Radeon 9500 Pro's ??

it has a connector on one side to connect to the video card and two power connectors on the other end ... one to the power supply and the other to the hard drive

this is what the card looks like

I may be wrong, but isnt it just a floppy drive power connector?

Jakk's right, just use a spare FDD connector. Most PSUs have two or three.
