If it's just the mom board, why not replace it, assuming the rest of the 
computer isn't too ancient.  I bet the same shop where it's in for 
repair could do it.

My computer is in the same case I bought about 15 years ago and has seen 
3 - 4 motherboards.  The only issue is that my DVD drives are still IDE, 
while the motherboard is SATA, so I had to buy an IDE interface for it.
