Hi Ron,

I missed the first part of the thread, so I'm assuming you have a 
Turion64 of some flavour too.  I am looking for this too, and all I have 
found so far, was an out-of-production Albatron Mini-ITX board.  Mine is 
a single core, so you may have a little more luck, but there are very 
few manufacturers who specify Turion64(_x2) compatibility, even if the 
boards are compatible.
