My wife uses an old computer with an Abit VH6-II MB. It recently started to have a static like click while turned on. It sounded like it was coming from the AGP video card. I exchanged it for a older AGP card,no change. I took the AGP card out an replaced it with an OLD PCI graphics card and the sataicy sound is gone.
Am I on the right track that the MB AGP slot is probably the problem? If so can I still get a MB for a Pentium 3 1GHZ. I'd just like to swap the MB out for right now , thats all the wife wants is to be able to surf the web.
Whats the best place to get an older MB and which would you recomend.

Is the only problem that it has that sound? Does it still boot fine? If so...I'd let it alone.
