Replacement for ABIT NF7-S... Any thoughts?

Hey guys,

My computer won't start at all, but I see the light in my mobo. I'm going to go out on a limb and say the motherboard needs to be replaced...

If you guys agree with that (I know it's not much to go on), what is the best option now to replace an old ABIT NF7-S? I'd like something with built-in audio, Soundstorm-quality would be preferrable. Below are my original components:

Samsung 120GB / 7200RPM / Serial ATA (OEM)
NEC 8X / Dual Layer / DVD+/- Drive / ND-2510A (OEM)
Corsair Value Select Dual Channel / 512MBx2 / DDR PC3200 (OEM)
AMD Athlon XP 2500+ / Barton / 333FSB / 512K Cache (Retail)
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro / 128MB DDR / 256-bit / 8XAGP / DVI/TV-Out (Retail)
Kingwin 10-Bay MidTower / KT-424-S / Silver / All Aluminum
Abit NF7-S / Nvidia NForce2 SPP + MCP-T (Retail)
Coolmax 400W Taurus CX / Silent / Black
Thermaltake Extreme Volcano 12 / Copper / Fan Controllers (Retail)
 
The Abit AN7 that I used to own before I upgraded to an AMD 64 setup was by far the best MOBO ever. When I got it with an AMD 2600+ I paid $ 85 for it @ newegg and damn the stability was awesome, the overclocks were insane and that Nvidia Ultra 400 chipset was great for the mad overclocks above 400 fsb I was able to attain a somehow stable 500 mhz FSB with the AN7 on air cooling man , if I had the need to build an extra AMD setup I would build it with an AN7 all over again. 😉
