Also, what options do I have if the motherboard is toast?  What replacement mobos are compatible?

There is no compatiable motheboards. You have to find the same motherboard, or get any i810E chipset motherboard and modify the software to accept it. This requires reverse engineering and linux knowledge. If you dont have those just get the same Mobo.

Would this work? http://www.amazon.com/Replace-Power%C2%AE-Replacement-5188-7520-DPS-108DB-1/dp/B00F0ZPXU2

yes, but i would spring for a 250 or 300 watt. it will produce less heat and not have to work as hard to power the system.

there are 1 or 2 boards that are nearly identical you can swap for (same chipsets and all), but at this point in time, EVERYTHING is used. it's not going to have much life left in it.

let's do one step at a time first. i would try recapping it first...power it with a fresh power supply.... and if it's doesn't work after that, Let me know and I'll see what I can do to dig one up for you.

The one I listed is 350 watts, is that not even better?
