I have an Aopen AP5T ver3.1 Mobo and it looks like the Bios Chip is fried. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for cheap? I looked at BiosWorld but they want $29 and I could get a replacement Mobo on ebay for under $20. Thanks for any help.

I'm guessing it is a socketed part, not soldered to the board. If you can determine the part number, search the web for a source. Of course, it will not contain any data so you'll need to find an identical board to use as a flash base. I think $29 is a reasonable price for a working replacement.
