Old 7360 Mobo
Authored by: timcolson on Saturday, January 31 2004 @ 03:36 PM CST
Hiya Dave -
I'm trying to help out an older friend who is in a seriously low income bracket. Her computer, a 7360, fell off her daughters desk and pretty much stopped working.

I'm a techy dude, and told her I'd see what I could do to remedy the situation. (I have a lot of spare parts.)

No visible damage, but the CPU was partly loose in the socket 7 slot when I opened it up. Snapped it back in, but the mobo won't POST. I get nothing onscreen. The PSU seems to powerup the board, and I tried another PSU just to double check but still no love. (I lastly tried unplugging absolutely everything including the ram just to see if I could get the POST...this thing shows me not a glimmer of life besides the fan on the CPU and PSU...and two of the fan blades broke as I was trying to pull cables in that tight case with my big fingers)

I don't have any spare micro-atx mobos around to swap with... so I'm on the net googlin' for ideas/suggestions.

Looks like you might have a spare mobo/cpu for that beast... please email me if you'd be interested in donating it for the cost of shipping and maybe a few extra bucks from me to cover the hassle. :-)

Thanks dude,
Timo
P.S. I'd love to see photos of the upgraded beast... it is tight, but a nice little case in other respects. Maybe I'll do what you've done, or maybe try to find a cheap VIA MINI-ITX board for replacement for her daughter.
