I have a Dell Inspiron 5100. I need to purchase a motherboard. I need to know what motherboard to purchase. Does it say anywhere on the laptop? Is there a website I can go to, to find out?How can I tell which motherboard do I need for my Dell?In order to find out what motherboard you have in your 5100, you will need to call Dell, ask them to give you a part number for your motherboard and have them transfer you to the parts department. They will be able to tell you what kind it is and what the cost is. You don't have to purchase anything right then, but at least you will have a price and will be able to go from there.
Just for future information that might come in handy, here is the specs sheet for your system:

Click on the below link, enter your service tag number then click on the tab at in the middle that says "Original System Configuration". That list will tell you everything that came on your system when you purchased it.
