Hey, I have a gateway running win. xp with a not so great intel graphics chipset that came installed. I recently aquired a hp pavillion which came with win. me and nvidia tnt 2 pro but has a bad motherboard. What I need to know... Will the nvidia tnt 2 pro from the pavillion work in the gateway and is it better than the intel?

Default motherboard question
I was given a hp pavillion which came with win. me. It has a bad motherboard. How do I determine or decide what motherboard to get and where can I get it?

Hi and welcome to PCHF.


I have merged your 3 posts into one-- as they are all aspects of the same subject.

If the Motherboard has an appropriate slot (VGA ?) you should be able to swap it over OK-- whether it will be better-- is hard to say without more research.
Exact models of both PC's-- for specs/performance data, etc
