It appears my motherboard has up and took a dump on me. Win 7 bluescreened and then crashed on me last night. Startup repair can't solve the issue, so I get stuck in an infinite loop of startup repair making an attempt to repair but failing. Event name is StartupRepairOffline and all the searching I have done seems to point to the motherboard. This machine has been randomly blue screening for a while and probably my fault for not acting on it sooner.
So in short, I have attempted to find the identical board (Gigabyte 790XTA-UD4) to do a swap but have had no luck. What are my chances of grabbing say a 990FX or 990X board and being able to do a swap and getting into Win 7? This is the main family PC and has all the emails, pictures, etc on it.
