Ok, so here's the deal:
I bought a Dell Dimension 8200.
I didn't extend the warranty beyond 1 year.
It died. It appears to be the motherboard.

There are two versions of the 8200 motherboard.
One uses the 850 chipset, with 400 MHz front-side bus (FSB) and takes RAMBUS 800MHz 45ns RAM.
The other uses the 850e chipset, 533MHz FSB, 800-40ns RAMBUS.

So I have the 850 chipset one and 800-45ns RAM.
I need to get a replacement motherboard.
I looked on eBay but it looks like they are only selling the 850e motherboard.

Any suggestions?
