With a rating of Wizard I will accept that answer. Thanks for the help. Too bad we are wasting so much in our industry. &nbsp;This is not like it couldn't have been forseen. &nbsp;I was hoping that it was a modification of an extended ATX Intel board. Well off to ebay it is then...

I am trying to upgrade a PowerEdge 2600 server I have which I use for my personal training server. It is a very nice server, in great shape. But it is dated now with a 32bit Motherboard. &nbsp;I am wondering if anyone had found a 64bit board that will fit. &nbsp;It does not have to be a server board and I would prefer that it is not do to the cost. &nbsp;I am about to build a new server for virtualization testing, study and so forth and really would like to use this box, it is rock solid with good air flow. I can't tell just how proprietary this case it in terms of taking a standard ATX MOBO or not. Cases are not that expensive but again I like this rock solid server and hate to toss it. &nbsp;

64bit Moboard for PowerEdge 2600?

Components are those devices that are internal to a computer -- the PC boards, the central processor (CPU), the memory (RAM), disk and video controllers and so on.

Components

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.

Hardware

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.
