Once I got the motherboard in, securly seated, and everything hooked up properly, I cranked it up. Immediately an error message pops up on the screen. The motherboard needed a BIOS update in order to properly run the processor. So, I changed it out with a slower spare that I had and it ran well enough to get me to the Windows XP login screen, but the problems didn’t stop there. As soon as it arrived at the login window, it would reboot all by itself. That was a good sign of a memory problem, and sure enough it was. That BIOS upgrade was needed in order to properly use the memory as well. I was able to find the offending modules, remove and replace them, and continue on with the repair.

This is rated difficult and time consuming first because checking each driver takes a fair amount of time. It is painstaking but possible. It is rated difficult because when you find a driver in need of updating you will need to uninstall and reinstall the sound drivers. This takes a bit of skill and the average computer user will find it difficult and nerve racking to do.
The first problem I encountered was how the motherboard fit into the case. I had to remove the cover for the rear ports because the connectors would not line up with the holes in the cover. There wasn’t much I could have done about that, because finding an exact motherboard match for an older model PC is difficult to nearly impossible.
