first off this is my first post here so hello everybody!
so basically, im considering buying a used alienware computer off my buddy for $100. he tells me he thinks the motherboard is 'fried' from when he was working on it and got electrocuted or something along those lines.
so now to my question, is it possible for just the motherboard to fry?, i would expect if something happened to fry the motherboard, why would anything else be ok? i hope it is just the motherboard so i can pick up some cpu/mobo combo and have a sick little computer for 500 bucks
any help is greatly appreciated!!
