Using the ATX power supply may not work for you. Even though the board may accept either one (I've got a board like that), the power switch on the case won't! Most likely, the power switch is a mechanical switch that actually has wires from the power supply going to it. ATX power supplies don't have these power wires, instead the momentary contact switch used as the power switch goes to the system board (that's why many ATX power supplies have a physical on/off switch on the power supply itself). Unfortunately, without the momentary switch, you won't be able to turn the computer on/off.
This sounds like an older system. What are you trying to run that you don't thing the 250 watts will be enough?

Nothing... Just wanted to get rid of another AT case if I can. I have 3 now, and am getting rid of 2 as soon as I can. Maybe someone in Edmonton wants em? Cause I sure don't. :)
