about 2 year ago i brought a hp pavilion slimline(model s3811uk)the board doesnt work anymore ,can i replace the board or not to make it work again ,it has a irvine board , GeForce 7100/nForce 630 ,Socket: 775 can anyone suggest a new board that will work
your title is misleading as it speaks about hard drive but the subject is possibly replacing motherboard which is 2 different things so fix your title. a microATX board is to big for that case so have 3 options. 1: pay an arm & a leg for an identical board from hp. 2: buy an identical board off ebay or similar & maybe enherit somebody elses problem. 3: buy an empty clone tower(with psu) & new motherboard then use parts from old pc like cpu, cpu heatsink fan assembly, ram & drives to populate new case & motherboard.
yes as long as the board can fit into case ok. most likely can't use your hp recovery disk tho can try if new board has similar chipset to old board.
