    Hi,

    I am hoping someone can tell me if this motherboard will work as a replacement for my motherboard in my a205-s4607

    http://cgi.ebay.com/Toshiba-Satelli...ZWD1VQQ_trksidZp1638.m118.l1247QQcmdZViewItem

    It lists the a205-4617 as being compatible but not the a205-s4607. The only difference I can see between the units is that this one has a fingerprint reader and my one doesn't.

    Also can I get my CPU put in the motherboard even though it comes with one already and could there be compatability issues there?

    The power on my motherboard is stuffed and since everything else works fine I thought replacing the motherboard is cheaper than buying a new laptop.

    And is the price decent for a motherboard?

    Thankyou!

    I believe it will work on your laptop, the same motherboard is used on most of the model range and they just change a few of the components like cpu, memory, or video card.
