My Asus G750 gaming laptop is now officially dead ...!

[member=458]m654321[/member] Having searched your model, the info I got indicated that there is a separate removeable power module mounted on the motherboard, which would not be supplied with a replacement motherboard. If that is the case then a failed power module would still not work with a new motherboard. Difficult to know what to say other than be very aware.

Yes, thanks. I already saw these on e-bay and did wonder myself - they are about £30-40, could be an extra expense on top of the £138 for the motherboard. Maybe, I should check the power module first.  I still haven't reached a decision yet. For now, I'm going to use my trusty 12-year old Dell for my day-to-day tasks and just put off any gaming for the time-being ...
