Does the motherboard work , if not do you know what is wrong with it ?\n\nIf it works , you could sell it on ebay or a similiar place, give it away to friends or family.\n\nDepends on circumstances, maybe you could give us some more info regarding the motherboard ie make , model, does it work or not, if you are trying to sell it, how much are you trying to get from selling it ?  etc etc etc

call your local waste authority to see where you can take idems like that.  There are usually several businesses around that will take older hardware and make it new for other people in need to use.  It was very nice to think about something like that. :D

I Hear you can put an ad in your local newspaper to take old computers off someones hands for  a minimal fee,so it does,nt end up in the landfill, & then you can recondition it if you have the technology for that thing.

check in dumpsters in buisness parks.  usually they just throw old computers and monitors away once they get new ones.

I have been building computers for several years now, and as far as I know nobody offers this package of items.\n\nIn fact at school when they taught us about installing motherboards they told us to save all extra parts, especially the stand-offs and spacers and that the Jumpers were like gold, to always keep the extras for when a computer component like a hard-drive needed another one.\n\nTo solve you problem, check with local computer repair places like BestBuy and CompUSA, they have drawers full of these items, and I get jumpers from them when I need them and they barrow what I have that they need at the time.

Hate to disappoint, but there's no "simple" terms.\n\nFirst you need to determine if your new motherboard is ATX/MiniATX or the old AT-style.  If you've purchased your PC within the past 6 years (and it's not a name-brand...many use proprietary layouts for their motherboards), it is likely ATX.  Also you need to make sure the power supply will support the new motherboard and accessories.  If your power supply is not at least 300W, you may want to upgrade your power supply as well.\n\nBefore you purchase or obtain a new motherboard you must make sure the memory and CPU on your old board will work with the new one.  That is, unless you're replacing the CPU and memory as well, then there's no worry.\n\nOnce that's figured out, you'll need to remove all the add-in cards (if facing the front of the case laid out horizontally, they're in the back, left).  Simply unscrew the screws, or unclip the retention mechanism, and slide them out (gently).\n\nDisconnect the hard drives, floppy, CD/DVD drives, and case connectors (for lights/power switch).  Since hard drives and CD/DVD drives often use the same style connector, make a note of which cable goes to which connector (usually labeled IDE0 and IDE1).  If you have a diagram of the old motherboard make a note of which case connectors are which (usually one for HDD light, one for Power, one for Reset, and one for speaker).\n\nRemove all the screws holding the motherboard to the case.\n\nInsert the new motherboard/CPU and reverse the above process (replace screws, connections, drives, add-in cards).\n\nPlease Note (IMPORTANT): if you are replacing an existing motherboard with a make/model that is not the same as the original (or at least the same chipset), you will likely need to reinstall Windows 2000 and/or Windows XP.  Sometimes you can get away with not reinstalling Windows 98 or Windows 95, but often they also require a full reinstall.\n\nHappy swapping!

each motherboard manufacturer has it way to upgrade the Bois ,some use the bois it self to do the operation ( by enter the Bios setting and from it u can browse the new bios image which is BIN file ,or some manufacterer us a windows based program to do the operation\nAnd you need to upgrade the bois for different reason ( fix a bug is the old version ,support new CPUs ,increase the motherboard stability and reliability

There is often a 3-pin section on the motherboard which is used to reset all the bios settings.  It might have the jumper on pins 1-2 for example, so you would move it to pins 2-3 to reset.  After you have turned the system on and it has reset, then you can move them back.\n\nGood luck.\n~Kyle

Search www.ebay.com.  If you search for the exact model you might find someone selling one that has a trashed LCD and you can swap the motherboards.

If your power button is bad then yes, you can probably take the button from the old one (if it is the same - not all are).  The old power supply may or may not be the same - you may have an AT supply in one and an ATX in the other.  If the power connectors look the same (the large ones that plug into the mobo) then yes, replace it.  You need not install it into the case first to see if it works, just connect it to the mobo, connect the hard drive and see if it powers up.

It's not clear what you are asking.  Do you have a failed motherboard and you want to replace it with the same or a compatible motherboard?\n\nIf so, the primary considerations are processor type, motherboard chipset, and memory type.\n\nAt a minimum, you will need to get a motherboard with the same socket, i.e. socket 478 for Pentium 4 and certain Celerons, socket A for Athlon, Duron, and Sempron processors.  Determine the Front Side Bus (FSB) speed of your CPU and select a motherboard that supports that speed.\n\nNext, if you can find a board with the same chipset you may save having to find and download drivers.  Common chipsets are Via and Intel.  If you cannot find a motherboard with the same chipset (because it is obsolete for example), going with a newer chipset from the same manufacturer may help with driver issues.\n\nFinally, to reuse your memory, check that your new motherboard is compatible.
