Default Re: motherboard problem

I have no idea what your particular problem is, but I had an HP laptop that stopped functioning with the power supply. I was able to charge the battery in my roommate's computer (basically the same model) and the power supply worked with her computer, but not mine. Turns out the power connector had broken off of my motherboard. I never got mine replaced, but I think that a port replicator (or docking station or whatever they are called) will fix my problem. It appears that the port replicators power the computer through a different connector. Of course, this isn't very helpful if you use the laptop for much other than a desktop replacement.
