Get a new motherboard, a new hard drive, and memory chips and cpu. The video and sound cards might not be plug compatible so check that, too. Be sure the parts come with mounting hardware. It shouldn't be expensive mailorder, and it's a lot easier than trying to find parts for an old design. The cpu will be the most expensive part, so don't look at the latest, hottest. A slower one -233- will be just fine.

If it's like the rest of the Packard Bell's I've seen, the case and power supply aren't worth putting new parts in.
