    Alright guys. I have a 7551g here which I am assuming has blown a mother board. While this was a great laptop for me for awhile It has turned into a nightmare the last few weeks.

    I had to order another screen for it after the last one went out. The screen that came in was entirely green and after numerous adjustments, it turned out to be a waste of time. I sent it back for a second one. I got the second one, plugged it in and it worked great for about 2 days. Now the board appears to be gone (Lights come on, fan spins for a few seconds and stops). I have switched every part including the bios battery out all with the same results.

    My question is this. I have the 5281 version (5650, Phenom n930) and need to know what motherboards fit it and where to buy one for it.

    That or to know if anyone is selling one for parts cheap. (At least, one that the motherboard works in).

    Thanks for your time, Gotta fix this thing eventually right?
