Which motherboard to replace original burned out board using original hardware where possible

[Tempo1]

My Cleveland GL8 motherboard is fried and needs to be replaced but is no longer available so Im looking for a replacement that will use the original hardware (video card, Ram DDR3, i7, LGA1155, Intel H67) I know stuff all about such things so Im asking you tech experts for recommendations please

Greetings,

Welcome to the forum.

I am not a HP employee.

Have you tried eBay?

The H67 chipset on this motherboard was released in Q1'11.

It is going to be very hard to find a replacement board for your chassis; other refurbished manufacturer motherboards may not fit correctly or some of the front panel connections may not work.

Plus the HP OEM Windows 7 factory recovery media may not work or W7 will not activate.

Thanks for the reply, Ive been looking for something to fit it but had no luck so far. Truly I have no idea about your comment regarding the chipset or  what to do about that. It seems a waste to have to replace this PC in it's entirety since its been very good

Hi Tempo1,

Your motherboard is around nine years old.

It will be very difficult to find a replacement motherboard (MB).

You will have to find a refurbished MB.

Thanks for your info  Grzwacz     I started by looking to buy new, then looked for refurb but still I cant find anything to make this work. At this point Im happy to get anything to make the PC run again.
