    Hi everyone - I managed to kill my lenovo 3000 N500 motherboard. Trying to find replacement but can't get any used ones. If someone could help me identify motherboard or tell me if I can replace it with motherboards from other manufacturers or models? My laptop is Lenovo 3000 N500, model 4233-23G, As far as i could find out - motherboard is: PLANAR, GM W/HDMI INTEG but what number, any other identification i was not able to find out. I don't believe that this motherboard was manufactured only for this Lenovo model alone - that would be unpractical.

    Full info:
    Lenovo 3000 N500 NS723GB 4233 23G
    (15.4" WXGA (1280x800) VibrantView,
    Bluetooth Wireless Technology,
    Intel Core 2 Duo processor T3200,
    Mobile Intel GL40 Express Chipset,
    Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500M,
    250 GB / 5400 rpm, DVD Recordable,
    DDR2 2GB (1GB x 2),Integrated Camera,
    4-in-1 Media Card Reader,
    Mini-PCIe, Express Card,
    Intel Wireless WiFi Link 5100 AGN,
    6-cell battery (2.4Ah),

    Please - any help will be highly appreciated
