Are there any uses for a "dead" motherboard?

A couple months ago, my ECS K7S5a died, so I picked up a Soltek 75FRN2L as well as a 2500 barton.
My question is, I don't exactly know what was wrong with the board, but is there anything I can salvage from the board before I scrap it, or shall I just toss it?
I have the XP 1900+ that was on it, and have yet to test it, but I'll do that another time (plus, I'm pretty sure that it's fine). I just don't feel like taking apart my box right now.
So that's the deal. Anything worth keeping on there?
