Hey people, I just got a few questions about replacing a laptop motherboard...

I bricked my laptop from a bad BIOS flash about a month ago.

Basically I have been without a laptop for about a month, so I really can't be bothered mucking around trying to fix that (if it is even possible). So I think I will by a new motherboard which should fix all my problems I have created for myself Dodgy

I found a replacement from motherboardnow.com (here) that is supposedly for my specific laptop (HP dv6-3037tx).

Few questions:
Is replacing the motherboard as simple as swapping it with the old one?
Or is there a complex procedure that I would need to take it to a technician for?
Also does it come with all the removable components (e.g. RAM, Network card, Fan/heatsinks), or will I have to take these off of my old board?

Thanks
Sorry to hear that. anyway you can find where the pads connected the pins to and llink them with a wire.
I replaced the motherboard and now my computer is working fine Smile
I used a different replacement part number than the original board to save money. But only because I was sure they were the same (and they are).
