if you can't find them on ebay, etc?

My Mobo fried, and I can't find one with similar specs. It was ASUS P4P800S-X, which I can't find. I just need a Mobo with combo of:

478 Processor socket for Pentium 4 chip
AGP slot for graphics card
SATA

Any other sources for this sort of thing?

I just went to eBay and did a search:

254 items found for: socket 478 motherboard in Computers & Networking

I suggest you try again

Try Computer Geeks they usually have older parts, or eBay.

if you are on any bigger computer forums, they'll have a "for sale" forum - good place to get older stuff.

also, i am sure if you ask around here, someone would probably have one gathering dust... heck, even i have a couple.

but if you want a store, numb got it right - geeks.com is a pretty good place for old and re-furbished. newegg has a couple (first two):

so does zipzoomfly:

and here's a pricegrabber listings for s478:

so, there are some choices still...

Newegg probably has many 478 boards, make sure it matches your FSB of your processor.

ebay is your friend for stuff no longer available retail

maybe u can find a new motherboard for 478..try asrock..they usually have good boards for the price and for old platforms too...

newegg has surprisingly few 478 boards anymore. They deal in cutting edge tech mostly. I just had a dell server board fry; close to your specs but a weird size. Found a replacement at ascendtech.com for $60 shipped. The onboard network adapter doesn't seem to work but they said they'd send me a free NIC. All in all, a good deal. They have lots of old 478 mobos; some new, some reconditioned, some pulled from working systems.
