Yea, finding a power supply to fit that 13 year old computer is going to be a challenge and it would cost more than the computer is worth. It is a 13 year old Win XP box. I can buy a fan for under 7 bucks and pop it right in in 30 minutes. We have 4 other identical computers. The real beauty of the Windows computers is off the shelf parts. All the power supplies sold today new are for the new motherboards. The connectors would never work. I have replaced many fans for a pittance. Our oldest computer is running Windows 2000. It is only 16 years old. It was a super fast mega machine back then. Now it just runs a SCSI raid. The desktop photo is of the daughter of a co-worker as a very young girl. She is 18 now. If it were not his daughter it would be rather creepy to have that photo on screen.
