Hi. I'm currently working on a T2245 emachine. I have come to the conclusion that the mobo and psu are bad. The machine is out of warranty of course. The EMA parts site does not stock the oem board nor could it be found on ebay or anywhere else for that matter. So, for the sake of saving 90$ for a fresh copy for xp home I was hoping to replace the mobo with an aftermarket. The OEM is an imperial glve with Intel 845GL Chipset. I've heard of people using a mobo with the same chipset without having to buy anything additional. My cousin bought this computer new from BBy and paid WAY too much then and still owes a lot. So the cheaper the solution the better. If anyone has any suggestions of a mobo that would work in conjunction with the restore disks I would love to hear them.
Thanks in advance
Shane
