given the age and spec of the machine this is what I'd have predicted would be the outcome from the PSU replacement requirement.

This will also extend the life of the system now that a new case and PSU have also been purchased...looks like all that's left of the original will be HDD and CD/DVD

just a thought, but with a PC this old, the disk drives will be IDE cable connections - does the new Mobo have these or is it expecting all to be SATA?
