Need someone to fix my sons laptop

He took it to some small place here in town and they said it needs a mother board and tried to sell him a new one.
This thing was over $2,300.00 just a few years ago.
Anyone willing to fix it/ take a look at it?
really don't need to drop another couple grand he doesn't have on yet another NASA style worlds greatest porn surfing laptop..

It's an HP HDX 16T-1200 Premium Series

Right now at Dell outlet there is a 20% off on laptops. You can get a Core i7 XPS 15 for $799 . It has 8 Gb DDR3 , 1 T HD , a DVD writer/BD reader Win 7.

For $399 you can get a Core i5 machine.

Worth checking out.

Use this coupon code XR0056K7WXQ1TJ
for 20% off.

I have had nothing but Dell outlet computers for the last 6 machines I owned , laptops and desltops , and never an issue. Although I use a newer machine (i3) day to day , my Dell Outlet Pentium 4 desktop is still working fine after 10 years.
