Default MOTHER BOARD HELP!!!

You'll need to look for ATX boards that support Socket 478, as well as the type of memory you have now and of course a PCI-E x16 slot.

Boards of that type are rare, though, as Pentium 4s have been obsolete for a while now. It is usually not a good idea to keep investing in old hardware.
