Why do you need these specific components?

I have the chip AMD x2 64.It is perfect so the idea is to get a motherboard to match it.

No, why do you need a board with the onboard geforce 6100, is what I meant.

The Geforce info was off the old motherboard that was defective.Looking a little further into this ,all i need would be a motherboard capable of taking the socket AM2 + x64 ,the chipset is not relative really.
Any sites in the Uk that supply the board would be great.
Help appreciated.

Should probably do, assuming it supports your exact CPU.
Be advised though, when you change to a new board with a different chipset, sometimes you will need to reinstall windows.
Yeah thanks for that,i will be putting a new version of windows on.I did nt even know Scan were still going.
Thanks again, NeilC

will need a videocard if you don't have 1 already as that board does not have onboard video.

good point actually, well spotted. If you don't have one spare you may be better off going with a 740G board instead.
