As referenced in another thread, I'm having issues with an Emachines T6216. Upon inspection of the processor, it appears that its an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ with model number ADA3200DAA4BW and of socket type 939. From a quick Amazon search, I've landed on [URL="http://www.amazon.com/A8N-E-Socket-nForce-Athlon-MotherBoard/dp/B003Y19IX2/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1332041696&sr=1-3"]this[/URL] motherboard as a possible replacement.

The only thing that I'm aware of worrying about is a possible necessity for an official Windows install and an ide to sata converter...

Just writing in because I'm not sure what else I can do at this point.

When I press the power button, the only thing that comes on is the fan and the board will not POST.

Here are the things I've tried thus far:

1. Replacing bad capacitors. There was a line of 4 visibly bulging ones close to the processor.

2. Swapping out PSU. I tried two seperate power supplies which were the OEM one and one from a dell dimension 2400.

3. Cleared CMOS. I attempted to clear it by using both the battery removal and jumper pin technique....
