I got an ATX to fit in a mATX case once. Its easy...you just cut off the last two pci slots. No guarantees on it working though.

As long as you sure you talking about micro ATX and not mini ITX or iirc BTX boards.
yeh, i just seen the MSI K8MM3-V Socket 754 motherboard and will get a AMD CPU Sempron 3000+ 64 Bit Edition to use with it, fingures crossed it will work fine.

I'm not rich enough to make these kind of experiments but it always brings a smile to my face to read people who have done real dodgy ghetto mods & got away with it. Respect
