Has anyone got an old ordinary PGA370 mobo lying around that they could perhaps ship me for nominal dollars ?

I have the remains of lightning damaged system. I have all the other bits to put it together, I'm just lacking the above mobo. It doesnt have to be anything cool, just functional, onboard video and sound is ok.

The machine is a charity job, to get one of my reclusive pals to try and get her 'out and about' even if only in cyberspace. So please, cheap and cheerful, no bells and whistles is fine.

cheers folks, I know someone will pull through for me. :)

I'll make sure that she comes here and says her thankyous when the system is up and functional. :)

    I have an [url=http://www.abit-usa.com/products/mb/products.php?categories=1&model=107]Abit BX-133 RAID[/url] hanging on my wall; I'll check and see if I have any others.

    cool... that looks like it will do the job

    now the interesting part, shipping.

    It need to go to :

    Craeg Bennett
    24 Seventh Street
    Gawler 5118
    South Australia

    You should be able to just post it, wrapeed in anti static and copious ammounts of bubble wrap.

    I'll be happy to paypal you for any costs to you if you can let me know what they are likely to be. :)

    thanks mate, I appreciate it very much

    on the topic of motherboards...

    If anyone here happens to have a late-era P2 (Slot 1) board, and/or an old Socket A board...

    (Sheesh, why didn't I think about asking here? :D)

    You keep asking for far too modern stuff. :)

    No one will get my old stuff, I need it all. :p

    I'll try to send out the mobo today; the last few days have all been rather busy, but I should be able to do it today.

    I just realised this morning while swapping a harddrive that I do actually have a couple of these lying around. What do you need specifically?

    SB: When I have a figure for you, I'll PM you with the details.

    Sanfam: does the [url=http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1417]A7V-133[/url] work for you?

    And, yes, I literally have these things hanging on my walls, including what may well be a working 286 (one of the capacitors might be damaged).
  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    in fact, it would. the board that died on me was...in fact...an A7V133. :D
  • BekennBekenn Sinclair's Duck
    I wasn't able to send out the mobos today; tomorrow shouldn't be a problem.

    I don't suppose anyone has an Asus A7V classic laying around....

    I still have mine, but the EEPROM is toast. I kinda want to get it running again so I can atleast have something modern for an mp3 jukebox/linux box.

    heh... You can't let the old ones go either eh?

    ;)

    For me, they go to Lightwave Heaven and become render nodes... :)

    I wish I were good enough at Lightwave to make use of something like that. I could make a beowulf cluster instead, I guess. :)
