it suddenly stop working, it does not open. so, i went to a dell shop in mall, they are not a servicing outlet but the employee tried to fix it. so he open and check everything and concluded that it is the motherboard. But i did not went to the service center because its too far from my place.
i have a friend who have a dell inspiron 3421 (defective display/monitor) but different in specs.
My question is can i use the mother board of his laptop and put it in my laptop? and even switch my original processor to the processor of his laptop? which processor is faster?
this is some of the specs of his laptop:
intel celeron 4th gen
4gb ram
500gb hdd
intel r hd graphics
by the way i'm more of a laptop user than a techy guy.
thank you so much!
