This isn't possible without some modifications, becuase the connectors that
connect the power supply to the //e motherboard is different from the GS's
connector.

You'd have to figure out what lines are what on both supplies (not to hard of 
course) and then simply take the connector from the GS's supply and match up
the wires from the AE //e supply.

Of course if you blow anything up you didn't read this here 8-).
