Before I go buy a new 775 MB for my kids PC, I thought I'd try to salvage the old socket 478 Pentium 4 I have. Does anyone have a 478 motherboard with a PCI-E slot that they would be interested in selling cheap? I'd need something that will allow me to access the bios clock and voltage settings. If you have one, let me know...

I remember an ASUS one that had PCI-E and s478 but they are hard to find

I found it. It's the P4GD1

Nice board. Not available in Europe. (or at least anymore).

If you want such a board, snap it up before stocks clear. Alternatively, go ebay. There is an ASUS board that does this, and an ASROCK. Both on Intel915 I think.

... there may be other options via VIA.
