    OK, so while my computer was away getting fixed, one of the guys bent a pin the the memory slot, so now only one of my memory slots works. So, the guy said that if I find a new motherboard, he'll install it for me. So I need your help finding a motherboard that will support all of my parts ATM.

    So My CPU is a 478 pin Pentium 4 2.40 GHZ. I need AGP x8. 3 Pci slots, 2 or more memory slots (that support DDR-SDRAM). It also needs to be IDE, not SATA. I think that's it all. All help is appreciated.

    Yeh, well I don't really care. A motherboard with Socket-478 is prolly gonna cost about £10 anyway.

    I forgot to mention it needs to ship to the UK. I tried bending the pin bakc, but it doesn't work. I looked on ebay, and I found this
