The super i/o chip is hot. Is this the end of this motherboard?

Place your finger on the heatsink for the chipset. Feel around for any extremely hot chips. If you find this, your Bios is shot. If you cannot locate the bios chip, just feel all the chips. The Bios chip should be mildly warm but never HOT!

Yes, if a programmed IC (bios chip) is fryed, then that is the end of the road for that motherboard. Everything else should be ok though (HDD, CD-ROM, Processor, etc).
