Which motherboard

[bpalmf]

Hello, I've got an old Acer aspire L5100 and I'm looking to change the motherboard . What should I go for. I'm new to all this but fancy having a go and see if it can get it working again.

thanks for reading

This one should work and offers a slight downgrade in graphics, but not enough to notice. Note: It supports DDR2 and DDR3 memory, but the DDR3 only works if you install an AM3 processor. The good news is you can upgrade the processor later if you wish.
