    I recently looked for a 775 motherboard. I thought the prices were terrible. Some wanted more than you could buy a current socket board for.

    With a clean install, Windows 7 Installation disk will install a generic chipset controller and you can install whatever you want or keep what Windows installed. That is really the only way to uninstall a chipset controller, unless yours is listed in the Add/Remove Programs section of Control panel. A clean install helps sometimes anyway. I just finished one on this computer and wasn't really having any problems.

    After more than a year and a half with the problem (It started on November 2013) I can mark this as solved and the computer is working fine without replacing any components.

    Two weeks ago and with the summer, in my city the temperatures go about 40°C so after two years I changed the thermal compound of the computer, but I removed the cpu from the socket and when I was cleaning the socket I noticed that ONE of the 775 pins of it was like it was out of it's place.

    Sorry for wasting your time because I didn't checked things like that.
