What is board level repair service?
While CPK does specialize in laptops and laptop parts, sometimes it is more economical to repair a laptop system board instead of replacing a laptop mother board. Case in point:
A HP DV6910CA mother board cost $300, you would have it in five business days and your tech has to install the mother board. Canada’s Part King could repair the defective mother board, repair time is usually 2-3 business days and the cost for repairing is typically $150. Thus saving your client time and money.

- BGA chip replacement
- Over the past couple of years this has been a popular fault on mother boards. IF you don’t see an image on the LCD panel or external monitor it is usually the BGA chip. In the past we would try to re-seat the chip but the failure rate would be high and the mother board would need to be replaced.

This is the BEST solution and the repair price is $200, depending on the cost of the BGA chip.
