My old Gateway PII 233Mhz needs a new power supply; all I know is that the old one was 200W and ATX. Anyone know where I can get one or substitute one, ie, will a 145 PSU do the trick? BTW, I did try Gateway technical support, they don't have any (surprise, surprise......). I also have a feeling the I'll need a "micro-ATX", but I'm not absolutely sure.......thanks for any info.

Any ATX power supply will work. Most likely simply unscrew the old one and screw in the new one. If you're overclocking and running a lot of peripherals, get 300 watts.
