Hi All,
This is my first post here so be kind please ;-)
I recently dropped my Presario 1260 laptop (in it's soft padded carry
bag) onto it's WiFi card (note to self. Take all PCMCIA card out
before moving laptop) ;-(
This had the undesirable consequence of ripping / breaking the PCMCIA
bit's off the mobo. I removed all the damaged parts and the laptop is
running ok (minus the PCMCIA port of course) ;-(
I have been offered a second hand mobo (from the States and I'm in the
UK) but I can't seem to get a Cpq part number that would reassure me
that it will fit / work with my existing stuff <sigh>.
From what I can gather from the sticker under the memory expansion bay
that my existing board is a:
102246-001 and could be used on the models 1255 through 1267?
http://tinyurl.com/26esj
The number the potential supplier keeps quoting is 356877-001 ?
http://tinyurl.com/2a37f
Could someone tell me if this board *will* work with my existing
hardware please .. (and is so will there be any limitations)?
All the best and thanks for your time ..
