I just Fixed a Customers Dimension 8200 for a different problem which
probably has a Similar unit. From what I can tell, the MOBO Connector is Std
ATX on this one. You can also post a Picture to my Support Message Board of
the Old Supply just to be sure.

Sounds like I could keep the costs down to about half of the cost of the New
one.

Just out of curiosity, what is it about the D8100 that makes it incompatible
with a standard ATX power supply?
