Can anyone save my christmas?

sneakdiss · 12-19-2004, 03:48 PM

See, my dads computer hasn't been working for awhile and I've tried everything in my power to fix it. I know it's the shitty Alton (Pc Ware) motherboard causing these problems and I know he really wants his computer to work.

So for christmas, I figured I would try and find him a new mobo, load that bitch up, re-install everything and deck it out with norton systemworks 2005, etc. and have him back up and running. I figure it's the best present I can get him. Slight problem though. Pentium 3 motherboards (socket 370) don't really exist anymore. If any of you have an old motherboard you would like to donate or sell cheap I'd be ecstatic!

I have a radeon 7200, a respectable video card, it can play almost anything, big problems with dx 9 tho. I have a mobo with 533 mhz, the set up I had before wasnt great, my one now is okay.
