I need a new MOBO again. I have 1.5 gigs of pc3200 RAM. However i was a PCI-e slot on my MOBO that will be compaitable with my RAM. Can it be done???

I don't really understand your question.
Are you saying that you want to buy a new motherboard with a PCI-e slot and want to use the same memory that you already have? New Intel motherboards use DDR2 but if you go with an AMD motherboard, the memory can be re-used.

If you're asking for a board that supports your current ram(ddr400), and also has a pci-e x16 slot, then yes, there are many available.

For amd 939 socket cpus:

And for intel 775 cpus:

I think that would be 106 boards listed that would fit your requirements.
