Solution
If the PSU is original, a new one would probably be necessary but to test the PC try borrowing one if possible... any PSU with SATA power connectors should work.

There is no Pentium D 965 3.4Ghz CPU... If it's a 965 it's probably a Pentium Extreme Edition 965 @ 3.73GHz.... and if it is a 3.4Ghz, it may be the Pentium D 950 @ 3.40GHz which is a little slower... the 965 is about as fast as a Pentium Core2 Duo 1.8Ghz, and the Pentium D 950 is comparable to the Core2 Duo T5270 @ 1.40GHz... they are not fast by today's standards but the PC may be upgradeable to a faster Cor2 Duo depending on the motherboard but with 6 RAM slots it should support the faster Core2 Duos.

As it is, it should be good enough for web browsing and general tasks...

As it is, it should be good enough for web browsing and general tasks and maybe older games... modern games would be out of the question.
