Hi everyone
OK basically my laptop, which is a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pa 3553 (which is a fairly decent machine), recently conked out. When I turned it on, the screen wouldn't display anything and I could only shut it down by removing the battery.
It has been confirmed that the motherboard is broken and will cost around £200 to repair, so I may as well buy a new laptop!
What I want to ask you guys though is: do u think the other components will still be working, how much can I sell the broken laptop for (e.g. on ebay, or perhaps to perhaps the manufacturer) and would it be better to sell the components separately or not?? Also, I've already removed the hard drive (which works) and converted it to external. Do you think any of the other components would be worth saving, such as the RAM, or would i get more from selling them included?
Thanks in advance
