Replacing the PSU for mom's computer?

[bamhm182]

Do you have any suggestions on a good power supply for my mom's compaq presario 5000, the original one was only 250 watts, so the watts don't really matter at all, and it doesn't need that many 4-Pin plugs because all she has that needs it is the CD Drive and HDD. The mobo is a 20 Pin. Thanks.

Just get a cheap 250/300W PSU. The computer isn't going to need a high-spec/high-rail PSU.

I know, I just don't want to have to replace it agains in 2 weeks or so, I was asking if anyone know about one that'll last for a while that's cheap and low in specs

This one looks like a reliable PSU for you.
