Thank you Dan, did not had any idea about that... 
It looks I should be able to change one motherboard for another one without much hassle after all...

May want to look at this[^]

The One thing I noticed from the two Picture is that the new motherboard had the extra square power connector and I did not see it on the old board, so will the power supply support the new board?
|
|
|
|
|
I guess it will suport it as the PSU has been changed for a newer and bigger one...
But which connector do you mean? I've not seen any difference in terms of power connectors...
Thanks!

The PSU was already changed and there are free cables there but in the HP board there is the same connector (middle/left of the board between the blue connector and the processor slot).
Is that one the one you were referring to?
Thank you!

Yep, good eye,
right next to the sticker, I missed it the first few times I looked at that board.

No worries then... Thank you!

I think there should be a Forum on CP named "Murt" for all problems with hardware or relatives.

Ah, for 10 more years, I look forward to you adding comments about your brother in-laws computer 
About the BIOS booting up in error. See if the BIOS has a motherboard based Video Card.
If so, Disable that. Usually the Hanging BIOS is caused by POST process...
Also, if the Video is Motherboard based, you might have to simply change its interrupts if it does not allow it to be disabled.
One way to verify this is to try to use both connectors to drive 2 monitors... See if it boots differently....

The day it all started was March 6,1836…
On that fateful day, Davy Crockett woke up and rose from his bunk on the main floor of the Alamo, and walked up to the observation post along the west wall of the fort.
William B. Travis and Jim Bowie were already there, looking out over the top of the wall. These three great men gazed at the hordes of Mexicans moving towards the Alamo.
With a puzzled look on his face, Crockett turned to Bowie and said, “Jim, are we, by any chance, having any landscaping done today?”
Hope springs eternal, they say...

I have had a Saturday job for over 6 years now at a storage outfit. 90% of the time I'm there I am writing code or lurking here. Anyhow, I just found a workgroup printer (Xerox Phaser 7300DT) in a vacated unit. I plugged it in and it still works, printing out a startup page. I checked on ebay and used ones are going from USD $700 up to $1300. My back doesn't want anything to do with it, but it would be cool to have it in the home/office for awhile, then sell it. What would you do?
Edited 2015-02-02: Thanks for the replies! Although I was certain the printer had been abandoned (along with a crappy set of knockoff irons/fairway metals) I left it overnight just to make sure. I went back yesterday with the appropriate equipment and retrieved it.
Now, for anyone questioning the legality, I should probably give a few more facts:
0) the unit was on the watchlist for move-outs that day, meaning the tenant had already advised us that they would be out by that date.
1) the unit was already reserved for another tenant who thankfully did not show up until today
2) part of the job is disposing of any items left behind
3) I left notes regarding the printer in that tenant's notes and also verbally informed the facility manager this morning about the situation
Currently the 150 pound behemoth is sitting in my garage while I build a stand for it.

That depends on what the laws are. Either the printer still belongs to the renter or it now belongs to the storage unit itself (when the entire unit contents goes to auction) or it belongs to the storage company (may auction items in the unit). In any case, you're stealing it. The question now becomes what happens to you if you're caught stealing a value of $1,300?

Are there any actually sold at that price?
Anyway as Dave K says is it your decision?

Contact your boss / the people who rented the unit and talk to them about you having it.
Chances are they are fine with that, provided you take it away, and then you're all legal and good. Given that Xerox list it at weighing 68Kg, it's likely they just didn't want to move it and will be happy if you do!
