AT motherboard for P4?
Sorry, you'll be lucky, you'd do better getting a new ATX case.
wrote in message news Is there one? I have an old AT case with great video/sound cards, good PS, all that stuff. I'd like to put a P4+mobo in it without getting a new case or PS. |

They may not be the best but they still work. I suppose at times they do.. Just upgraded my ex's PC from Shuttle 591P, a VIA chipset based mobo that worked without a single hitch for over 5 years. I hope the replacement Intel 845 will be equally good. |

To do this you would have to modify the case which is a big bother, but I
believe there is a special Newsgroup on modified cases so there are experts out there. You might go there an ask their advice on how they go about it. The main problem is the arrangement of the ports and then you of course need to buy an ATX power supply that has a proper place to fit in the case. wrote in message news Is there one?

I've never seen ANY computer that performed that flawlessly. Yep, the mobo worked flawlessly. Apart from OS upgrades the only thing that was ever replaced was a Philips CDRW drive. Twice. Not very demanding user though. |

You should hang on to that one! -- Stacey |
