I built my computer using an AMD Athalon 3200+ processor.
It is a Socket A processor.
I would like to upgrade the computer without suffering additional expences. I would like to upgrade the processor to a Core-Duo. The Core Duo however uses a Socket 775 processor. This is not compatible with my motherboard. Is there a way I could buy an adater to put between the 775 processor and socket A motherboard? Do you think it will work?
Thanks.......

No. I would be looking for a Core Duo based motherboard.

Not a shot- even if you could shoehorn a weird adapter in there, the support chips on the motherboard wouldn't be compatible.
Time for a new mobo if you're going Core Duo.
