I think I need to replace my MB on my Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 260. The system will not power on. No beeps. Nothing happens when I push the power on button.
Questions:
1) If I buy a used motherboard, will I need a new copy of Windows 10? Isn't the windows key stored on the motherboard so I would that key still work?
2) Can I upgrade to an I7? The currents system has a I5-6200U. Is it worth it? It appears that both use the same heat sink.
3) There is an listing on EBay for the same sytem I have (same type, different version) without a hard drive. Can I just install my drive in the new system without buying and installing a new copy of windows?
Help!
