When I start the computer, I get a message on the screen that says searching for boot disk or something like that. It won't boot up due to those pins being broken. I also have a problem with my video card as my monitor cable will not screw all the way into the back of video card so replacing the motherboard should solve that problem too. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mohammad AbuShady To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, October 28, 2010 7:28 AM Subject: Re: [computer-tech-support: 7862] motherboard replacement
Well just thought i should add a small thing, you have a primary and a secondary IDE ports, i'm not sure if you can break a SATA port, so if you're just using 1 hard disk and 1 dvd for example you can switch to secondary IDE port without needing to buy any new motherboard.

I when to HP website and got my specifications for the manufacturer and model number. I need to know if this is all I need to know when replacing the motherboard. Can I just match up the model number or the model name to get a replacement? Also, is it as simple as plugging everything into it as usual because that is what I think. I’ve never done this before, but it occurs to me that all I am going to have to do is screw in the new motherboard and attach all the fans, cables, etc. to it and then all is well. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Computer Tech Support" group.
