I could have probably found a slot 1 board someplace if I were to have had the time to hunt. It was pushing 8 pm, and most places were closing for the night, not to mention being over an hour drive back home. I needed the machine back up and running. They had some boards in a clearance pile (literally), that were all opened up and looked rather ransacked. At Fry's Electronics, you NEVER touch their opened stuff. It is likely to be non operational.
