Compaq Presario Notebook Motherboard

[SpudNuts]

I just have a quick question.

I'm working on a notebook for a friend and looks like the motherboard is shot. The notebook is a presario 2720US and he's found a motherboard on ebay that is listed as a 2700. Are they compatible? Will the 2700 go into the 2720US?

Thanks

My guess would be yes if they have a numbering scheme like HP. Basically the 2700 would be a series? I am guessing though. I would compare pictures of the mobo's. Does the seller have any high res pics of the mobo? Without having the mobo that is the only way to tell.

I moved you over to mobile.

I checked HP's site, and it looks like you might get lucky:

What you need is the part number on the motherboard. It appears that HP used the same part for both notebooks in the list. Either way, HP's website is a good place to start when it comes to part compatibility.
