I really need to know if there are 

Acer Aspire V3-572P-540V laptops anywhere so I can get the motherboard from it. Anyone has an idea?

    Ouch... I found it's not easy to get Acer parts for some reason, even for repairs of older systems like those.

    I did find some motherboards that could be of use for you, but they belonged to different sub-models. I just searched for the main model V3-572P and there seem to be places where they sell it (second hand of course), but I have no idea whether they'd be suitable for you, or whether they'd deliver where you are.

    And the ones selling it seem to be on drugs or something because the prices are nuts, what's up with that system? Was everything soldered onto the motherboard or what?!

    It may be better to consider getting a newer machine, and selling whatever parts you have left of yours :anguished:

    Where did you see it? It can be second hand or not. I'm getting a new system but something on the motherboard died and it might be related to the graphics or something else, it just crashed one day while I was watching YT and never turned back on again, it just shows a black screen. I just need it repaired so I can redo the settings I had on it on a new system because it's a long process getting everything set up right. This was my first Acer and I've taken it in for repairs more than any other system, completely turned off by it.

    Here you have a couple of places:
    Interestingly, some places seem to list them as compatible with several Acer systems, so maybe they actually shared that component. It could be useful to look for the Acer part number of the motherboard you have and search for that. It may be either printed in the board itself or in a sticker maybe.
