"can anybody tell me if i can use a amd am2 processor in a 939 motherboad as a test to see if the motherboard is bad"

Considering that Socket939 and SocketAM2 are two different standards, I'd say the answer is no.

"it starts to boot does memory test and hangs up and restarts to memory all over again and again"

If it doesn't complete the memory check, I'd suspect that they memory has a problem. The other possibility is the processor itself. I suppose it might be a case where the power supply or the voltage regulators are faulty, but I'd suspect the memory.
