Big difference between a recovery-CD, and a complete OS on a CD. The recovery CD is going to have info on all your old hardware settings, BIOS, etc. It will take a puke if you stick in a different motherboard.
I've had a few MB failures over the years. It's never been worth buying a new board UNLESS I needed to retain some old features like ISA slots or the older 1st generation PCI slots, old RAM slots, etc.
I just had an on-board sound chip go bad on a Dell motherboard. I could of fixed just by adding a new sound-card to over-ride it. But, the processor was slow and the Dell board was limited to only 2MB max RAM. So, I saved the two hard-drives from it and the two DVD burners, bought a new computer and added them in.
For $275, I bought a ZT Element 2140 desk-top tower machine - that came with 2 GB RAM, a 500 GB hard-drive, DVD burner, wireless networking, Athlon II X2 2553.1GHz processor, my choice of Vista or Windows 7, wireless optical mouse, keyboard, internal card reader, etc. Being able to still get the Vista OS was a big plus to me since there are many programs that Windows 7 will not run -and Vista and XP will. For $275, shipped to my door, a new MB wasn't worth even thinking about.
