Mobo advice

Ello, Im looking for some advice on motherboards. I'm trying to go for a cheap upgrade but I can only run ddr1 with this mobo so its probs cheaper to get hold of a second hand one that supports ddr2 what I want to know is what should I be looking for on member market ebay etc. Something that will support DDR2 thats not too expensive.

You've got enough posts and time to get into Member's Market. Stick up a wanted ad in there for a Core2Duo, at least a P965 motherboard and 2Gb of DDR2. You should be able to get the lot for £100 or possibly even slightly less.
