Micro ATX PSU for a Micro ATX Case 400W+ ??

Solution
Yup yup. Also check if your case will support a ATX PSU, cause a lot of them will, you can easily bring the case in, or even easier bring a PSU to it and eyeball or even do a fast tear-down to find out.

Well I'm trying to figure out if it will, that's the hard part. The current PSU in the Micro ATX case is 200mm x 85mm x 53mm (7.9 x 3.3 x 2.1 inches). So Wouldnt I need to find something the same size or smaller? I thought ATX PSU's were too big?? Sorry for being such a noob, I gotta do this for my mom..
 
Why do you need a different psu?

I think your PSU is a proprietary unit.
It has dimensions: 200mm x 85mm x 53mm (7.9 x 3.3 x 2.1 inches)
That comes closest to a TFX12v psu which is 6.9" x 3.3" x 2.5"
Such units will have about 350W at most.
Here is one example: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151114
If you can fit the slightly taller unit in the space available, it might work.

If you want to install a stronger graphics card that needs a stronger psu, you could use one of these auxiliary psu boosters that fit into a dvd drive opening:
