775 sockets are getting to be older than dirt.your system needs to be completely upgraded ie cpu,gpu,motherboard etc.you could still use your hdd if it is a sata drive.i run old hardware too but even mine is new compared to this.not trying to be unkind here,just realistic.

Thanx Aldan, yes it is the real advise, but its not posible with current situation,, so i would like to get suggested the best in the older category of lga 775 ....

They really don't make 775 motherboards anymore, so they're hard to find. But this would do ok:
PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-G41MT-S2PT Micro ATX LGA775 Motherboard ($72.88 @ NCIX US)
Total: $72.88
(Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)

Why do you need a new motherboard anyway?

oh,i see,your motherboard will only support 2gb of ram.if you get the motherboard that hitechobsessed is linking you to,it supports 8gb of ddr3 ram,so you will have to buy ram but you can keep your existing processor.here is a link to compatible video cards.this route will be a noticable improvement over what you have.
