Question: What is an inexpensive, but reliable, motherboard replacement for an Athlon processor? I have an ASUS A7N8X motherboard that has not given me a minute's rest since I first installed it.  Its so unstable that the BIOS settings change from one use to the next.  Not only that, but sometimes it fails POST for memory and/or drives.\n\nI don't want to get another ASUS board because they don't support their products.  All they ever do is say to re-flash the BIOS, but doing so never fixes anything.  A friend has the same exact board and he is having the same problems.\n\nHowever, I think the Athlon processor is still good.  That is why I want to get a new athlon compatable motherboard with network, sound and usb built in.\n\nCan someone reccomend a *STABLE* ATX motherboard that is compatable with the Athlon?  It does not need video because I have a good AGP All-In-Wonder card.  It does need sound, usb and network though, but only one network (the asus had two but only one ever worked).

Answer: Try the MSI KT880 Delta-FSR. This board has high ratings and reviews and supports the processor you have (I'm assuming its a Socket A). It also has the AGP slot for your video card. Four USB ports and a RJ-45 LAN port fits your needs, along with the 6-channel audio chip. All this for $54.99 on tigerdirect.com .
