My micro Pc HP Pavilion 765 no longer works. After various test (power supply, etc.), it appears that the motherboard (Via VT8235 ProSavageDDR KM266) to be the culprit. As against I do not know if it is ATX or Micro ATX. How do I replace it, without changing anything else. The processor is an AMD Athlon XP 2600+/2.13 GHz. The RAM is DDR SDRAM, 2 bus ide, 1 floppy drive ...
After a brief Google, your motherboard is a micro ATX Socket A.
I would advise go for Asrock K7S41GX but I do not know if it will be 100% compatible and I wonder if it will not be a shit with your OS, in relation to the practice of brand, OS OEM associated with motherboard, among manufacturers.
Thank you for your answer
I just had a reply from HP on my motherboard, and suddenly I have another question
Motherboard Supplier: FIC
Motherboard Name: AM37
System BIOS Supplier: Award
Form Factor uATX
Processor Brand: AMD
Is it possible to replace a uATX motherboard by a micro-atx motherboard?
μATX = Micro-ATX
so yes you can because it's the same thing ...
Attention even when the connectors of the front (power button, reset, usb front panel, and others), which may not be compatible with the motherboard standard in effect on brand computers (HP, Acer, Packard Bell, etc ...), sometimes special connectors found only at the manufacturer in question and may need to hack this level, adapted to the new motherboard.
