What i need help with is to find compatable motherboard and processor. This is the motherboard part number 'QIWG5-G6-G9 LA-7981P'- can you confirm if this is compatable with my laptop? Since i am changing motherboard, is this compatable motherboard work with i7 processor as well, if possible can you mention processor details as well or part number that i could look into.
