Greetings - A 300 Watts PSU should be just fine for your 8200 as confirmed on the link below -

And yes, replacing the PSU, if suspected, would be a good place to start the troubleshooting as all could be owing to it -

Hi Kruzen,

The green led light on the motherboard indicates that the motherboard is receiving power and it is normal.

As rightly mentioned by Kerv, the normal watts for PSU are 300 Watts. I would request you to kindly let me know the status light of the power button and if your computer is able boot to windows.

Restart the computer and keep tapping F12, which will take you to “One Time Boot Menu”. Choose diagnostics and let me know the error which you are getting.

Also, please elaborate on the issue you are facing so that I can assist you in a better manner.

Do respond for further assistance.

Thanks & Regards
Rathish C
