Motherboard Replacement by
chevyfan
Looking for a new motherboard for a Compaq Presario S6010V. The one that
came with it is a MS-6577 M-ATX Rev. 3.1 Giovani. This exact model is not
available anymore. Not really wanting to upgrade, just a comparable
replacement for the original.
Any suggestions? Thank you!
