presuming that you mean Centron processor when you say Sempron...

presuming when you say 'not a new' power supply...

presuming that Centron processor motherboard has two connections from
the power supply - the long multi-pin connector (probably has a
designation but I don't know what it is) and a second 4 pin power
connector. A power supply that is capable of supplying that second
connection would likely be required - most of the ATX power supplies
made in the last few years would have them but if you put the
motherboard into an older case, it likely would not.
