Dell XPS 18: What is a reasonable cost to replace the motherboard?

Fri, 12 Aug 2022 19:48:55 -0700

My Dell XPS 18 motherboard went out last week. I sent it in to the Best Buy repair service and they want to charge me $1060 to replace the motherboard. I am shopping around for a better deal. Is it worth replacing or is it better to invest in a new PC? In the past 5 years, when I've replaced PCs, they have lasted 1-2 years before dying on me. Advice?

Dell XPS 18: Why won't my computer charge?

Sun, 01 Mar 2015 14:29:48 -0700

I am having trouble charging my computer. Every time I plug it in to the charger, it does not help. I have tried multiple outlets and it still does not work. Could this be the charger or is it something more complicated?

I am trying to troubleshoot why when I plug it in the light blinks but it is not responsive. I think it could be the battery but shouldnt it be able to power on without it? I want to try to be sure before ordering a battery but I am not sure how to test the battery with it not working at all.

Dell XPS 18: Why Does My Device Power On Then Powers Off? 5 Beeps

Wed, 15 Jan 2020 21:13:58 -0700

Dell XPS 18 will power on, most of the time will have 5 beeps followed by 5 beeps. Sometimes after I do that I can get it to go to login and then will cut off. I’ve disconnected the battery and its stayed for a while and actually able to use for a bit. Its back to just cutting on and off. I may get a few minutes of use here and there before it shuts off.

Not sure if this is a motherboard issue, battery issue, charger,or cpu issue? Please help.
