Does anyone know of a UK retailer that has the K7S5A Pro in stock? Apart
from eBay, I can't seem to find one.

Well mine failed on me after a capacitor burst. I don't plan to 'upgrade'
until I build a completely new Athlon64 rig, which I can't afford right now.
It makes for a much less hassle-free situation not to change motherboards
until then, and all my other hardware comes just up to the K7S5A Pro's
limitations.

I hear you. I have an old VIA motherboard system that I wanted to
move to a much faster SiS900 motherboard. Win2000 will not let me
make the move as it blue screens no matter how much I gut the system
before moving it. So I'm shopping for a new VIA motherboard and
hoping for the best.

Good capicitors are pretty cheap. Perhaps you could replace them your
self of know of a 'buddy' that can do the job for you.

www.ebuyer.com used to do them, but the current crop of PCChips boards
are dirt cheap (from £13) and get good reviews.
