Well I unmounted mine, and got one from newegg that was exactly the same just higher volts. The computer would not start with it. I called compaq, and they said I have to buy theirs for it to work because of how the computer is built... Then I looked it up online and came to find out that it is true.
It wasn't hard to un-mount and replace, it just simply did not accept the new power supply.
So I have an extra power supply sitting here at my house. lol
