What is the right motherboard for my friend?

[ThePunkerGuy]

Ok, i need to find a good motherboard for my friend. Ok, right now he is using the ECS K7S5A board.. but his ATI 8500LE doesnt like that motherboard. (we have tried his vid card in 2 ecs k7s5a boards and all freez up while playing some games). He needs a new motherboard for other reasons anyway so what should he get. It needs onboard sound, and it would be good if it had onboard network, but not necessary. He needs it to be really inexpensive, like the ecs board.. $50-$65.. something like that. He is going to use an Athlon XP cpu with PC2100 DDR ram. Ok.. well if anyone has any suggestions.. let me know, thanks!

If he just needs a gaming rig, no real overclocking, $40 for a KR7A, http://www.excaliberpc.com/product_info.php?cPath=156_166&products_id=724&osCsid=8b67820c7bc4bd5312f1087318ec4448.

For $65, more overclocking ease, a kx7-133 http://www.excaliberpc.com/product_info.php?cPath=156_166&products_id=730&osCsid=8b67820c7bc4bd5312f1087318ec4448, kx7-133/RAID version $70, http://www.excaliberpc.com/product_info.php?cPath=156_166&products_id=837&osCsid=8b67820c7bc4bd5312f1087318ec4448

How about the AOpen AK75. AOpen make a solid board with some OCing features (though you won't break any records) and it's only $63 shipped from newegg brand new. I am thinking of getting this board for a second rig, it has the SiS 745 chipset.
