First, compare the power ratings. Not just the total power, but the maximum current for each voltage. Any replacement power supply MUST be rated for at least the same total power (Watts) and current (Amps).

Next, check that the Dell supply has all of the required power connections. If you do not have all of the motherboard power connections, the system will not run.

After that, it becomes a matter of fitting the Dell supply into the case.

Personally, I would by a good 400 watt or larger replacement power supply.
