Wink Upgrading my AOpen Ax6bc!

Yes I know it is a dinosaur but it has served well and I got it for free. I have already done several upgrades to it. Like first I over clocked it and now I am at 333mhz. I added more memory so now I am at 512 mb memory installed a western digital 120gb hdrive ( which motherboard is only capable of 30 gb but the price on the 120 was awesome). creative audigy sound card, windows xp professional, plextor52/24/52A, Lg 52x32x52x and room for one more Now the Question! I want to move up but I want to use everything that I already have except the motherboard, is that possible? I was thinking because I still wanted to use my memory cards that are pc 133 double sided 256 mb that the highest I could go would be a pentium III. I was Thinking of maybe a DFI CA64-TC motherboard. Am I going to have to switch power supplies? Mine works quite well and is very quiet but I do keep the cover off of it because I use it to fix other peoples hard drives and program problems with it. My power supply is 235w AOpen with noise killer 3.3v,+5vsb,+5v,-5V,+12v and -12v.Also would I have to re partion my hard drive or will the new motherboard do that. I have alot of music on their that is hard to find for karaoke that I wanted to keep but I wanted full capacity of my hard drive ( about 12gb of karaoke music).
