I still have a Compaq 7360 that my mother uses. Can I get a generic
motherboard to fit in it?. I remember years ago all the factory brand
PCs had propritary motherboards. Does anybody know about this Compaq?
and it's case?

if its the type of board that has a 'riser' on it, then finding a
board that will fit will be impossible. Less its the same Identical
board.

Compaq's, like other major manufacturer's use PROPRIETARY motherboards. So
you cannot use a generic.

In this case you CAN fit a generic motherboard. This uses a socket 7
(baby ATX?) MBD not manufactured by Compaq..
