    Hello everyone!
    I have an old sony vaio vgn-fz31m laptop with gpu 8400 problem. So i decided to change the motgerboard in order to make it work. The problem is: they're not that easy to find! But the one i found, I'm not sure would it be compatible with the rest of my hardware. This is the board i found:

    Board model: MBX-165 MS90 REV:1.2 MAIN BOARD
    Chipset: INTEL 960 SLA5T
    South Bridge: NH82801HBM SLA5Q
    Socket: mPGA478MN

    My laptop specs:
    T7250 cpu
    2gb ddr2 ram
    Nvidia 8400

    So my question is: would it work if i put this board instead of mine?
