The draw maybe to much for that pin, connect the power to one of the 5v pins on the power supply motherboard connector.

If the adapter ran of a USB cable then the AV 5v pin should have been enough, but it uses a plug.

This looks like an awesome project that I can do myself...

Got any diagrams that you used that can help in my travels?
