I figured out that my old PC which is a micron PIII 866's mother board is fried. I bought a new dell but now I still want to fix the old one. Can I order a motherboard for P4 and P4 cpu? I still want to used my old memory sticks (sdram) and hard drive, video card.
well you have to make sure everything is going to fit into your chassis. If the case is an ATX then the motherboard should fit perfectly. As for the ram..I don't know if you should mix a P4 with SDRam because it will bring the performance down and DDR is fairly cheap nowadays so I would suggest you upgrade your ram. The hard drive shouldn't be a problem if its an IDE. (which it probably is) The video card, make sure its a PCI or AGP card
Yup ATX case. Hard Drives are IDE Video Card is PCI. Someone mentioned to me that I should check the power source?
I think some (or all) P4 boards have a different type of connector for the power supply. Not sure, as I've always had AMD. I'm sure they make converters for that though.
