I need recommendations on Micro-ATX boards that will work in with that
context.

I'd look for either MSI or Gigabyte boards as both brands do high quality
products. And I would also choose a solution with integrated VGA (ATI)
to keep the case as clean and organized as possible with the less cables
and cooling fans as I can (less coolers, less dust :-P). Also, I would
look for a BIOS (non UEFI) product.
Gretings,
Depending on what you may ultimately want to do with the board, you might
want to have the capability of using a plug-in video card.
This machine has a Foxconn board in it. I thought that this was a low-end
board--and maybe it is, altho it works OK--but Foxconn makes the mobos
that are in Apple computers. I have also used Gigabyte with good results.
I agree with the non-UEFI suggestion. Why look for trouble?
