  • Question About Power Supply for XPS 400

    Hello I bought a XPS 400 like two or three years ago I think and I was going to replace my Power supply to a non dell one. I have been reading up on the internet about this and I was wondering If my computer had a proprietary motherboard that only accepts dell power supplies.
