Looking for a mini-ATX with on-board sound and graphics for an Athlon XP2100
processor. 266 MHz fsb is fine. Looking to replace an ECS board with SiS
chipset. Thanks all.
 
any reason you`d like a SiS chipset?

nforce and VIA's are other popular choices, and will widen your selection.
i`ve not used SIS chipset before, but i`ve had all good expeiences with VIA
and the nforce2 chipset.

also, what about things like mainboard spec? SATA, RAID, LAN, minimum USB
connectors, onboard VGA etc etc.

The board should be ATA, with either PCI or AGP graphics onboard, sound and
NIC. This is for a very basic desktop system for a relative, who will be
running XP Home. I'd like to keep it as simple and as maintenance-free as
possible since I won't be tweaking it every day like I do with my own rig
:-)
 
ASUS makes a nice board with the NVIDIA chipset. I belive it sells for around
$60-$65. Check at newegg.com.
