yeah im deff thinking its power issue is this sumthing i could buy a part n replace myself?
IF it's a problem in the power circuits, you should be able to fix it, assuming you have decent soldering skills and a decent soldering iron.
It could be a small PCB that needs replaced or a teeny diode in a bridge rectifier circuit.
I think your idea of looking for a broken one for spare parts is probably the best idea.
Another option would be to find an old grey haired guy that still works in a mom & pop electronics repair shop.
I would try the CMOS battery first though. Cause, without a functioning BIOS a computer is little more that a glorified door stop.
