Looking for an AT SocketA motherboard

Yeah, odd request I'll admit, but I've got a bunch of SocketA cpus and a CDRom server case that's designed to take an AT board; I'm not opposed to just modding the case to accept an ATX board, but I'd like to exhaust my options before getting out the Dremel and cutting in. 😉

So any ideas? Basically, just a Baby AT board.. at this point, I don't care what, if anything, is built on board, don't care what chipset, type of ram, etc. Just needs to be "AT" and accept a SocketA processor, the faster the better! Thanks!
 
You'd be better off looking for a S370 board for PIII and Celeron Coppermines, there are/were a few AT boards for those. There is/was only one Athlon AT board that I know of (PC Chips) and finding one is next to impossible.
 
There are two in fact - PC-Chips M812LR, an all-in-one w/ SiS chipset, graphics, sound, LAN, modem integrated, and two PCI slots; Jetway 849BS, a plain ALi Magik1-SDRAM board, sound onboard, three PCI one AGP.

I have a PC Chips M812LMR etc (all in one SIS 730 chip- display,soundnlan,modem) that has been great. I have a 750 Duron running XP & 256mg RAM. It limits you to SDRAM & only accepts Athlons to 1.2g on a 200mz bus.
got it from www.wiredzone.com. They are getting hard to get.

PS- I use it as a second system for my daughters. I like the HEAVY guage steel case that I can sit or stand on.
 
i too was looking for an AT Socket A mobo. couldnt find one and had to switch to an ATX case because of that. Those are incredibly hard to find. GL in finding one.
 
PC-Chips items often go anonymous or by store brand. Just search for M812 or M812LR and nevermind the badge.

I am in a similar situation. I need to upgrade an AT box that has sentimental value. It appears that the only two options in the market are the EPOX:3VWB+ (S370) and the PCCHEAP M812LMR (SockA).

I think the EPOX may be a better choice(reliability), but it is a 100FSB board, so my question is

Is it possible to find S370 processors in the 1-1.2GHz range at 100FSB?

I am affraid that if I buy a 1GHz PIII all I will get is a 133FSB
