    Google tells me this is a Packard Bell special not normally listed so finding it in retail will be unlikely.

    eBay is your best bet or something other avenue.

    The actual board is a mATX Intel 915P chipset of which you can source a replacement in retail so it should get the system back up & running though you may need to re-install sound drivers or some such if they are different.

    Be aware the ga-81945p-g is a different chipset the Intel 945 series and will need to take steps if your RAM isn't compatible and you are attempting to boot an existing Windows installation on a hard drive.

    Your motherboard uses DDR and is mATX, the board game4it70 is offering uses DDR2 & is ATX so it wont fit unless the case can accept full size ATX boards.
