How much can I expect to pay for a replacement motherboard in a desktop pc?

How much can I expect to pay for a replacement motherboard in a desktop pc, specifically Compaq Presario SR 1010NX?How much can I expect to pay for a replacement motherboard in a desktop pc?That computer was outdated when it came out. It's also 5 and a half years old now. Many of the components that this computer uses aren't in production any more. I'd be willing to be that the replacement cost of the motherboard is going to exceed the value of the computer if you can even find one.



I checked the HP parts website and the motherboard for this computer is no longer sold

Time to buy a new box.How much can I expect to pay for a replacement motherboard in a desktop pc?That's kind of a vague question. Since that mother board is no longer manufactured you may have little to no luck unless you send it back to Compaq for replacement. I have no idea what there service costs are. I don't think it would be worth you time/money. Better off getting a new machine because that board SUCKS.How much can I expect to pay for a replacement motherboard in a desktop pc?If you know how to replace your own motherboard, you won't have to pay much money at all. $37-$55 on newegg.

More realistically your looking at $239, the price of the entire computer because a quick internet search will show that no one carries spare mobo parts anymore.
