1.	Solve : Help finding a new motherboard?
Answer» right now i am using an unmodded (except for more RAM) HP Pavilion a1424n. i need to upgrade my motherboard to one with PCI-e 2.0. I would like to keep my same CPU and OS. my CPU is a Pentium 4 3.06GHz dual core, and my OZ is XP. my problem is figureing out about 64-bit and 32-bit. my OS is 32-bit, and i'm sure my CPU is also. I know that the motherboard figures into this because of the connector with the RAM, so i want to MAKE sure that i can get one that is 32-bit, or find out if it doesn't matter. Does anyone know of a motherboard that will take that CPU, have PCIe 2.0, and also be able to handle 32-bit? thanxmay i ASK why you WISH to have a motherboard with PCI-E 2.0?
