Help me choose a motherboard

Hi,

I'm wanting to upgrade my motherboard but there are so many new and different motherboards I'm having a hard time trying to find one for me.

My current motherboard is an Asus M2V-MX SE with an AMD Athlon 64 x2 dual core processor 4500+

I like Asus motherboards with an AMD CPU although I'd be willing to try Intel once again. I'm also willing to try a different MB brand.

I want USB 3.0 bus ports.

I also need one with IDE slots for my internal hard drives and DVR.

Currently I have two external hard drives (WD MyBook 1.5 TB) and both support USB 3.0. I have 2 internal IDE hard drives (40 GB and 150 GB). I am having a hard time finding one with IDE slots. I'm thinking that I'll have to copy my data over to the newer hard drives and ditch the IDE completely, but my C drive is currently the 40 GB drive. Isn't there a way to mirror it over? Operating system is Windows XP. I'd upgrade but have quite a few programs I purchased over the web and downloaded (don't have discs for them) and I'm not sure if they'll port over to Vista.

I use my computer primarily for photos and videos. I'm not a gamer but appreciate quality graphics.

I don't want to spend a fortune but I don't need to go ultra cheap either.

Thanks for any help and suggestions you have to offer.
