Replacement mobo for Acer Aspire AM5640?

I've been unable to find a cheap exact replacement for an Acer Aspire AM5640-U5403A motherboard that has gone bad and is out of warranty. I'm not overly familiar with motherboards, so was hoping to get some suggestions for a reasonably priced replacement motherboard that will work with this case/CPU/RAM.

Here's what I know:

Acer Aspire M5640 AM5640-U5403A
Intel E2200 Pentium Dual Core Processor
4GB DDR2 Memory
S/N: PTSAM0X0448090AABB2701
SNID: 80904370727
Uses onboard graphics through Dsub or HDMI.
Biggest number on the mobo is N1996.

As far as I can tell from my research, the original board is probably a MB.SAM09.004 (as the system has an HDMI output), but could probably also us MB.SAM09.001. Another part number associated with the board seems to be MMCP73PVMK.

This is information associated with the MB.SAM09.001 mobo: MMCP73PVMK, NVIDIA MCP73PV / INTEL LGA775 CPU / DDRII, GBE, HD CODEC (WITH IO SHIELDING AND CPU RM), D-SUB & HDMI, ROHS COMPLIANCE


This seems to be the system manual: http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/m...als/S.G_Aspire_M5640_M3640M1640_BOOK_VerC.pdf

This is a link to the MB.SAM09.001, which may provide more information about a suitable replacement: https://www.besonline.com.au/Script...ObjectID=25A05F3F-6B8E-492E-8BEE-A433F93D9EE4

Can anyone suggest/provide links to a cheap suitable replacement for this motherboard on Newegg or a similar site? I would really appreciate the help to find a replacement. I understand I'll need to repair Windows after doing so.

Thanks in advance.
