Well, CRTs have high voltage, and a big magnetic field... you could be
better off with an LCD (if you get lucky and it is designed well).

The power supply is an external "brick"? You need to look at how many
volts and amps it is, and then find a linear power supply with the same
volts and at least as many amps (or more). Then you have to find an
adapter so you can plug it into the back of your box.
