Need help finding a specific computer PSU

I know you guys KILL at this... I've tried every avenue I can think of, right down to calling the manufacture, which got me a Email addy to "try" and make contact with...Can't find anything of substance through Google, took it to a local computer repair place and the guy wasn't hopeful, beside going to the manufacture.. So, the PSU is a Delta Electronics DPS-150KB A REV: 1 and it's part of an FIC (First International Computer Inc) Samba 1845 case (small formfactor?) This is as close as I've gotten on-line to finding the case http://www.fic.com.tw/download/ficsff.aspxI mention the case, because the guy at the "repair" shop said that it's likely specific to that case as everything fits "just so" in it... I've tried a different PSU, a much larger one (it's a lab computer, so pretty isn't needed) and I couldn't get it to power up. There is a cable on the original that has 2 yellows and 2 blacks going into a square "molex" plug, that I would assume is somehow connected to the power-on button, this different PSU I tried doesn't have this... So, I thought maybe I would unleash hell (you guys) on this and see what floated to the surface.... Anyone up for a challenge? Thanks,Aaron

Aaronthat 4 pin plug is required by the motherboard, it gives extra voltage to the board, i forget how much. if the bigger PSU you tried didn't have it that's why it can't power up. i think the need for the SFF PSU is because of the case dimensions. i've seen a few SFF cases that needed a certain PSU to fit inside, unless you want to mod the casing for the PSU. if you have the dimensions of the PSU you might be able to find a comparable online.

I realized last night, how much I sometimes miss the forrest because of the trees.... DOH.... I'm looking for a specific PSU, when obviously, I could have gotten the WHOLE kit and koboutle for less than the PSU... I got an Email back this morning and they want 45$ for the PSU.... lol.... So, again, thanks for finding something I could have easily found myself, but I couldn't get past needing JUST the PSU, to see that fact... !! My mind works in strange ways, i'll tell ya...
