Six months ago I bought an Intel D945gnt motherboard, ram and Intel S775 PD 940 3.2 Ghz cpu. The motherboard/system has been an intermittant mess with lots of random reboots and also compatability issues with DVD drives, etc.

Now I want to change to something else but don't know enough to select another motherboard (ASUS...?) that will let me migrate the cpu & ram. Not even sure if my existing cpu is dual-core or ...

Want something with 2 PATA-IDE ports/connectors, that will fit in the same cabinet as the existing Intel board, and, does not cost megabucks.

Any suggestions or comments appreciated?
