I recently had a MSI k7 pro with an amd k7 slot a die on me becuase of leaking capcacitors. It took out the power supply too. Im pretty sure everything is ok except the mainboard, and since slot a mobos are around $35 I think Ill just pick another one up. Do any of you know of a ok slot a mainboard? I really need an AGP slot, at least 2 pci, and at least 2 usb ports.

Any other motherboards you guys know of would really be help... Ill be posting some pics of the dead k7 with cap leak. (also please let me know if any of those ^ 2 motherboards arent compatible with my k7 slot a athlon)

It might be easier to buy a vheap socket A mobo (around $70 for a cheap nforce2) and then a 1700+ and some new RAM. This way you would get mucg better performance and have a future upgrade path too.
