I'm going to say 55 to 89 Watts. Again, it depends on what Processor.
This means you would have enough power to turn those simply LED lights on, and fans; but NOT enough power to TURN the Processor on; with a Power Supply that has a weak voltage power rail.
OR, Use a KNOWN to be good, Compatible power supply, for a temporary test unit.
Before you start though, take a CLOSE [email protected]@K at those Electrolytic Capacitors on the motherboard. (Radial Aluminum Electrolytic Capacitor/s, to be exact)
Answers & Comments
Probably not the jumper settings Nethen.
Check the Power Supply's three main voltages, with a multimeter set to DC Voltage.
3.3 Volts, 5 Volts, and 12 Volts.
No, don't guess. You could have a Power Supply with a weak voltage power rail, and have fans spinning, and LED's lighting up.
Why?
1) If ALL of the LED's were on at once, they would use less than 1 Watt of power.
2) EACH fan uses 2 to 3 Watts of power.
3) A typical Processor can use 51 to 125 Watts of power.
Just depends on what Processor it is.
Hmmm, lemme see...
Socket 478 processor socket, and Intel 865G motherboard chipset;
Supports Intel Celeron, Celeron D, and Pentium 4.
Prescott, Northwood, and Willamette Cores,

Has anyone fooled with the CMOS jumper? If so state what happened.
