@Bill87mcc , welcome to the Community.

 

The motherboard in your computer is HP proprietary. It has a 4-pin power connector instead of a standard 24-pin ATX power connector. You will have to buy any PSU upgrade from HP.  There is a 500W (L05757-800) that is compatible with your motherboard.  This is the most powerful PSU that HP sells for your system.

 

Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that will explain what to consider when adding a new motherboard to a HP case.  I realize that this article discusses moving your motherboard to a gaming case, but you will have similar problems with using your HP case and a third-party motherboard.
