Internal Desktop Pci

Emachine Advent & Medion Desktop Computers

The above computers have been sold in significant numbers through High street outlets.

There are a number of different types using a variety of altered architecture which apparently makes repairing these computers difficult for many people. These pc's have one thing in common in that they all suffer with a motherboard failure, leaving all other components in good working order.

They are very easy to repair with a simple motherboard replacement, even for the most inexperienced of people. Save yourself lots of money by replacing the motherboard yourself. It's easy

There are a number of different architectures involved in these computers, so it is important to have some basic information in order to buy the correct motherboard for you to use as a replacement.

The types of processors used in these computers which dictate the motherboard are as follows,

AMD socket 462 or socket 754

AMD Socket 939,940 & AM2

Intel socket 478 or socket 775 and

Intel socket 775 with DDR memory and AGP slot or DDR2 memory with PCI Express slot.

To buy the correct parts for these, the full make and model including model number of the existing motherboard code number which can be found near the white PCI Slots on the motherboard and will consist of two letters and 4 numbers for example MS7061.

All motherboard and power supplies are built around ISA or International Standard Architecture. This means that the new components will fit dimensionally regardless of who manufactured it. For example a power supply can be bought in hundreds of places, with a number of different output wattages, but the physical size of the unit is still the same.
