If I remember correctly this is a generic Dell desktop.
I remember hearing somewhere (This MAY NOT BE ACCURATE) that Dell
used a proprietary wiring setup in their machines.
I belive that there are some adapters that would allow a good 400
watt power supply (which should cost less than $50.00 to purchase) to be used.

If you have to spend $100 to have someone replace the computers
power supply... replacing the machine instead is something to
consider as a better long term investment.
But you also need to think about how you are going to get your data
off of that machine.
Taking out adapter cards will help reduce the load but time is not
on your side. With a failing PS, the situation will continue to get worse.
The sooner the better.
