I am somewhat uncertain as to the amount of work this requires. Is this installation as simple as removing a few screws and existing hardware from the old motherboard and popping in the new one? Then just setting up the system configuration in the ROM setup? Secondly, I was wondering what kind of questions I should ask when calling for prices on the above mentioned motherboard. Finally, what motherboard would you recommend and who carries it? (I have my computer shopper handy :-) BTW, it needs to be full size. Please E-mail your responses and thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
