Does anyone have a copy, or know where I can get, the service guide for an Acer Aspire M5641? I am replacing the motherboard for a friend, but I'm not sure which connections to make on the board, as the old board was already out of the PC when it was given to me.

I may have missed it, but MagnusTheBrewer's link appears to go to a location to download the users' guide. If you don't find what you want at that page, this Google search result should help.

This page from that search shows several links to the service manual for your machine. As always, be sure your AV is up to date, and scan whatever you download from any download site.

Hope that helps. :)

Thank you for the quick responses. I have seen the user's guide and I tried one of the links in the Google search results without success. I'm specifically trying to figure out which connection to make for power. The PC has an aftermarket power supply, that appears to have a 24 pin connector, which looks like it matches up to a spot on the motherboard. Plugging into both motherboards though, the PC will not power up at all. The symptom with the original motherboard was boot, but no video, but now I can't even get that far.
