Can you be sure its the motherboard and not the power supply? The fuse in the power supply should go before any damage to the internal components. I had a 9500 that the powersupply actually caught fire and all the internal components were still fine. Replaced the power supply and it still works today. Power computing machines will run on a standard ATX (new style PC) power supply that any computer parts store should carry. In the USA they are about $40 retail, $15 at a discount parts store.
