    Hi all, just wondering if it is possible to purchase a single BenQ S41 or S42 motherboard. I tried the oven method to repair it but my oven obviously runs a lot higher than it should cos it got fried within 3 minutes. A couple of capacitors and resistors have fallen off so assuming that can't be fixed now. I'm looking for a motherboard to replace my current one. Thanks in advance for any help given.

    Have you tried contacting BenQ? I can't imagine how much they would charge, but try contact them first to get an idea.

    Thanks for the quick reply.
    Yeah I have contacted them before and they said that they don't sell these components to consumers. I was just hoping someone, somewhere may have an idea where to get one.
