Ordered a new unit from eBay right away. Dell models typically cost between $70 and $100 on the site.

You're almost ready to purchase a new PC. It seems the Vostro 3800 uses a typical motherboard (micro ATX with standard power and CPU connectors), so adding a micro ATX should work fine. For quick setup, you don't need the latest 4th generation; older 3rd or 2nd generation components will also function. The rear I/O layout depends on the case design—you might need to modify the back panel if it doesn’t have a standard shield.
