HOW TO FIND WHAT EXACTLY I MUST SEARCH ON THE NET?MY PC DOES NOT LOAD AND HARDWARE SPECIALIST TOLD ME THAT I MUST TO CHANGE MY MOTHERBOARD AND IT'S POWERSUPPLY.HOW TO FIND THE SERIAL OR MODEL OF MY MOTHERBOARD IF I KNOW THAT MY PC'S SOCKET IS mPGA478B Intel.I tried to find more information related to motherboard but i could not understand where to look them for...I have motherboard on my hand with socket number mPGA478B and I KNOW NOTHING ELSE...PLEASE HELP ME TO SOLVE MY PROBLEM :( Ainur

There should be a model number other than the socket number somewhere on that board. Most times it is located either on the edge of the board towards the back or far side away from the chip. Or it is located right in the middle of the board... In google search the numbers listed shows that it may be a FoxConn board. But not a guarantee. Since you have it out....locate any series of numbers and google them for a possible answer. Obama's Spread the Wealth I gave my waitress' tip to a homeless person. She has a better understanding!

At the far end from the chipset it is written FC tested to comply with FCC standards for home and office use.and one more box is there with: Canada ICES-003 Class/Class B Nothing else i could find on the Motherboard should i search for "Canada ICES-003 Class/Class B"? Ainur

Keep looking there is a model number somewhere. There has to be! It may be in very small letters/digits....most will start with a letter or two as company identifiers then a series of digits and letters Obama's Spread the Wealth I gave my waitress' tip to a homeless person.

Might help if you post the model/manufacturer of your PC as well. Don't know? Look at the case. "So won’t you give this man his wings What a shame To have to beg you to see We’re not all the same What a shame" - Shinedown

Download & run CPUZ...click on the Mainboard tab. If that doesn't list the info you need, download & run SIW. "If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions" - Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson) in Pulp Fiction
