Old PSU

I am upgrading my old Pentium2 450 Dell Deminsion XPS R450 Case with an AMD64 754 cpu, motherboard, video card and ram. I was wondering if you think the psu that came with the original case would work on the new motherboard. I am keeping the hard drive, cd and floppy that it came with for now. Thanks for the help.
 
If it's ATX, it will "work," but it might blow up if you sneezed at it. You're going to need a more powerful unit.

Actually it won't even "work." ATX12V connectors were not introduced until the p4 was released, so a PSU from a p2 system won't have one. The Athlon motherboard probably won't even attempt to POST.
