Is this Acer Ferrari 3200 motherboard interchangeable with my Acer Ferrari 3400 motherboard?
I need to replace the motherboard in my Acer Ferrari 3400LMi. I've found a halfway-decent deal on an Acer Ferrari 3200 Z15 AMD motherboard (31Z15MB0016). Can anybody tell me whether this motherboard will suit my needs, or point me in the direction of resources that might help me figure it out?

That does help. My only concern is that I don't know what "Z15" symbolizes. But if all 3200's, regardless of submodel, share the same motherboard, and the 3200 motherboard will work in my 3400 with the 3400's CPU, etc., and line up with everything inside, I'm gonna go that route.
I think that Z15 is something like different color or different OS version. Some minor change.
Good luck!

Yeah, Z15 was the right model. And you were right about it being exactly the same except for the port replicator. Perfect.
Unfortunately, I still can't get this machine to boot up. I get to the BIOS Loading screen and can hit F2 or whatever key it is to initiate going to BIOS menu, but it freezes at that point and goes no further. I may post another question to try to troubleshoot this machine further.
Thanks for your help on the motherboard compatibility.
