    So i'll be scouring Ebay for a new 939 Socket processor. :)
    hopefully back up in a week or so.

    Why in the world would you want a 939 socket processor? That's like one of the only AMD processors that don't support virtualization!

    Well, I just run the box stright and don't use virtualization. And then it's also the only socket that will fit in my motherboard. Not really interested in a new system, just getting this one backup and running. It's still does the job nicely for what i use it for anyways. :)

    Ya, bad news is.. it's the motherboard and not the CPU.. damnnn.. Inspected a little closer and notice a capistor or two has busted.. I don't know if i want to grab a scrap board at my moms house, then try resoldering some replacesments.. didn't hae any luck the last time i tried. Hmm kinda cool to see my board is still up on ebay going for 60+.. not sure i want to spend that much on a new board.. Some other ones are going for 40 or so.. decisions decisions..

    Can't really go wrong to get your PC back up and running for $40-$60. Then spend another $20 on rush delivery so you can get your shit back up and running! :)

    I was totally kidding about the paying a ridiculous amount for rush delivery on

    a part that cheap. lol

    Whats your processor again? You might even be able to find a new (and
    much faster) processor/MB combo for not much more than $60 if its an old
    setup. I think you said 939? Thats like 10+ years old, right?

    You can get a 5400K AMD (dual core 3.6ghz), motherboard, and Radeon HD 7540D for $73 total right now on NewEgg! Prob beats the shit out of your old CPU/MB/GPU but I guess you'd need new memory too, at least.

    Correct, And i feel like a jackass for all of the money i spent on it originally. I'm pretty set on getting my moneys worth as it still does eventhing i need for the things i tinker with. I have an AMD 64 x2 4800+ dual core 2.4 gig. The 4800+ is the highest model before they switched the cpu socket type to AM2.

    You can get a 5400K AMD (dual core 3.6ghz), motherboard, and Radeon HD 7540D for $73 total right now on NewEgg! Prob beats the shit out of your old CPU/MB/GPU but I guess you'd need new memory too, at least.

    Of course any thing faster when what you current have is nice. I still have a fast desktop though, a corei7 2600K sandy bridge. Only a few years out dated now hehe.. So one mb is a nice trade off to get it going again.
