Mobo gone bad, need cheap solution

I've had an ECS K7S5A for a few years now, did it's job, until yesterday

I'm not the wanna be hardware guru I was back then, and have no clue what's out there

Need a mobo to run an Athlon XP, PC2100, Ti4600, and a TBSC sound card, nothing fancy.

Any help is appreciated
 
Might be difficult to find ... but before you fork out for an overpriced, old stock socket-A board, consider that socket-754 CPU/board combos (newegg) do run your PC2100 RAM just as well.

edit: Seems there are no AGP mainboards in current combo offerings.

There still is the PC-Chips M848A socket-A board, which I've used for exactly the kind of replacement job you request. $39 at newegg. The fact that it uses an SiS chipset might save you some difficult repair work on your OS installation.
