Einleitung

The main component of the Acer Spin 3 SP315-51-757C is the motherboard, since it is the central piece of the computer than connects all other parts. A faulty motherboard can be the cause of a large number of problems. Replacing your motherboard should only be your last resort if no other guides fix your computer’s issue.

    • Using an opening tool, pry open the back panel, starting at the silver screen hinges.

    • You may need to apply more force than usual. If you don't find any success at the hinges, you can try to start at another area that looks easier to open.

    • You can also use some plastic opening picks to help hold parts of the panel open while you work on other sides.

    • The charger port's inner cable may be covered by a manufacturer sticker, which can be easily removed.

    • Using your nails or tweezers, unplug the charger port cable from the motherboard.

    • Remove the single Phillips #0 screw.

    • Unplug the speaker cable.

    • Unplug the secondary speaker cable.

    When looking for the screw, there was a felt tab covering it, making it difficult to identify the screw. It would benefit the user if you noted that they should lift the felt tab.

    • Use a Phillips #0 screwdriver to remove four screws from the heat sink.

    • Carefully slide the motherboard from under the heat sink (it is easiest to slide the motherboard to the right).

    On the final step, we noticed there was another cable plugged into the motherboard to the left of the fan. This isn’t noted or pointed out in any of the other steps.
