HP Envy 17-J013CL Motherboard Replacement

はじめに

Use this guide if you want to replace the motherboard of your HP Envy 17-J013CL. The motherboard is the guts of the computer where all the internal parts connect together to make the whole thing work. Without it there is no way for signals and information to pass along one another. There are a lot of pins, sockets, and ports so it is important to stay grounded and be gentle with it. Bending it can also break it!
