Hello, I recently changed the power supply of my PC that had burned out.
But the motherboard also burned (I plugged everything in and at best the fans turn without reason and I have no display).
My processor is the Intel Celeron D but apparently it has 2 chipsets:
the 478 and the LGA 775.

Thank you for your responses!

To be or not to be, that is the question.
Thank you for marking your question as resolved!

Hello

There are not two "chipsets" but two "sockets" for the processor.
Specifically socket 478 or 775, in fact, Celerons existed on both.
If the PC is 9 years old, it could be either since they coexisted in 2004.
A photo of the board will allow me to quickly determine what it is (especially the processor area).
But if your idea is to find a compatible motherboard for your Celeron, I'll stop you right there: It's no longer worth it........too old, you can still find it but it's obsolete.
You might as well buy a new upgrade kit (motherboard/CPU/ram).

Thank you for your concrete response. Do you want the photo with the cooler?
Otherwise, for the upgrade kit, it depends because I don’t want to spend too much money otherwise I'll just get a new one for Christmas...

Do you want the photo with the heat sink?

It depends, if we can see the motherboard around it.
