Hello, I suspect that my board has burned, the keyboard and mouse stopped working, even light (laser) mouse lights. I disassembled everything and mounted it out of the box.
The graphic does not work in the first PCI-E slot and now only works on the second, it takes a lot to start and always blocks when asked to enter the bios, and when it goestakes a minute and blocks.
It is an ASUS-Deluxe P5NT
I do not intend to upgrade but need to replace the board by an identical to keep the rest of the components.
Although it is an ASUS board, I still prefer the same brand. But I accept any suggestions
After searching I concluded that the P45 chipset is best for socket LGA 775.
I thought about buying P5QC to have the advantage of supporting DDR2 / DDR3, but do not know if there is a better and cheaper board.
I wonder if you can help choose the "best" and cheaper board.
What do you suggest me?

Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the replies.
I know this system is already a bit outdated, it's actually not for me, but for someone who does not want to spend much on the "repair".
My system is much more updated!

Jcomptech - That board turns out to be weaker than that burned (P5NT-Deluxe), no PCI-E and DDR2. But thanks for the tip!

Components that belong to the board are:
CPU - Intel Q9450 (LGA775)
MEM - Team Elite PC6400 (2x2GB) (DDR2)
EVGA Nvidia GTX 260 216Core (PCI-E x16)
Power Source - Nox NX520

Sincerely looking for another board besides P5NT-Deluxe, I've read a lot about it instability.

I used to have its little brother, the P5N-E SLI with a Q9550 in it. Nice setup for its time. But the problem I always had was trying to populate all 4 slots with the fastest memory the board could accept. It was VERY particular about RAM. As far as I know, the person that has it and the CPU now, is still gaming happily on it.
I really don't think you're going to find a new LGA 775 board the equal of it anymore.
