Hey ya'll if any of ya have any help on how to learn what your processor or motherboards form factor is it'd be much appricated.

Well we need an example of what you are using.

with ATX, you will have back panel IO and also a 20pin connector.

With BTX (The like 1 board that uses it so far) just has a 24Pin connector and the Processor is in the lower right hand side of the board.

With AT you have a dual inline 8 prong IIRC plug. like this: ---- ---- Also will have a weird back panel IO.

On the back of it I've got
two PS/2
one serial
one parallel
two usb
analog audio jacks

The graphics card is in the AGP slot

Does this help?

It used to be a Compaq 5700T mobo

Hmm not sure... could be ATX (sounds like it) however cannot remember if Compaq uses proprietary HW or not. Anyone else remember?
