I make this post in curiosity. My computer is getting a bit aged. But
still going Now a reasonable motherboard with a 32 bit processor, what
would a reasonable one go for? For those that keep up on this. I bought a
motherboard once and put it in a case. I fired it up and it was dead
immediately. I forgot to put spacers between the board and case. So it
fried.

What I got on ebay was a motherboard and a package of scews spacers and
"stuff" no instructions.
