Replacing a laptop motherboard is not an easy task. How do you know it is the motherboard thats bad?

Not trying to be rude but if you cant find the part number then a laptop disassembly might be more than you want to take on. I would let a professional do it.

This what you have? http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/ho/WF06b/12139188-78299199-78299212-78299212-78299212-81749852-81978909.html

Looks like a decent parts warranty. Are you still covered?

yes, this is the one. This is actually my friends laptop and it's out of warranty. I am pretty sure that mobo is bad cause it was known issue on these models when sound card winch is integrated into motherboard dies due to overheating. I think i can replace it myself, I've disassembled laptops before to clean radiators, so it is not smth incredibly complicated. I just need to find mobos part number to be sure i order right board. I couldnt find any information about motherboard model on hp website so I've decided to ask the community.
There is a sticker with 2 numbers under ram sticks, looks like cpu and motherboards SERIAL numbers not part number...
