For the past 6 months I've been having a lot of problems with my computer. It crashes all the time and generally doesn't run well. I cannot use a lot of USB devices and only my ball mouse works, not my 2 optical ones. I cannot plug my iPod into my computer either. I have reinstalled windows a number of times, but this has not fixed any of the problems.

I think it is my motherboard, but when the computer crashes it sometimes wont boot and says a disk read error or something along those lines. Does this sound like a motherboard problem or could it be a corrupted hard drive.

My current motherboard is this one:

My current processor is this:

And I have a x800xt AGP card, so if it is my mobo, would this motherboard be compatible(or is there a better board for cheaper)?
