Replacement D845GVSR Motherboard; Need mob to still work emachines windows

Hi

Not sure if anyone knows of a replacement motherboard for the D845GVSR on my emachines 2210. I am not interested in upgrading specifically but I know my motherboard is dead as I have tried an alternative and it boots fine (until windows that is!).

The problem is the OEM windows XP that comes with my machine from e-machines wont load windows (not even in safe mode after restore) from an alternative motherboard. Is is possible to purchase an exact replacement or one that will at least be compatible with the ebuyer OEM windows?

Many thanks in anticipation

There are no guarantees when replacing the OEM board with another you'll still be able to use your "E" Restore Disks. For the "E" Restore Disk to work you'll have to look for a board with specs as close as possible to the D845GVSR but there's still no guarantee this is going to work. What board did you try?
