ERR Yes - the one I am sending this from - the ASUS M2V-TVM. Onbaord 
SATA, USB 2.0, NIC, Audio and video work under OS/2.  Onboard video is a 
bit slow however so I have  an ATI Radeon X-550 PCI-express video card 
installed. This is probably the part that will cause you the most 
trouble getting. The X-550 is obsolete and its replacment is not 
supported by the old scitech drivers which are no longer being 
developed. Look around for a card that is listed - perhaps also look at 
what the new panorama drivers support, but I think they do not support 
3D (not that I use  that).

I got my complete pre-built system with this board from CCPU:

But you're probably going to have to shop around as this mother board is 
no longer listed on his site.

But all these shops apparently do (or can get within 1/2 days):
