MotherBoard may be FRIED, need advice on closest replacement!

This board bios won't keep date, replaced battery, still problematic.

 

Sometimes, it won't boot unless I take out the battery, tonight had a Firewire Problem, so I think its time to replace.

 

 

The idea would be to replace it with something very close, i.e. working out of the box with my new HD and installed 10.4.8 since I was never able to figure out how to update.

 

I also have a Geforce 7600GS running perfectly with CI/QE.

 

My Present Motherboard...

D945GTP

I am thinking about this one, the DQ965GF and wondering what will happen if I swap out the CPU and use this motherboard and just try to boot up.

 

Any ideas? You can read more about it here: Thanks!!!!!!!!

OK, I just read a bunch of horror stories about this board (the Q965 one), so, any suggestions on what INTEL Motherboard I can purchase that will just work with present ATA HD with 10.4.8 installed?

 

I think the 975BX might but its a bit pricey.

 

Any other ideas?

 

Thanks!
