Product: HP G60-549DX Notebook PC
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a G60-549DX which is so slow that it has become useless. I have built & rebuilt hundreds of desktops, but no laptop. Are there components (MB, CPU, Memory) that are easily installed in this case?

HP no longer supports the G60-549DX laptop.  Finding parts for it will be a big challenge. 

 

For it to be useful again you could install Linux.

 

I did manage to find a manual for the laptop at a third party website.

Thank you for responding. I don't want to use this computer as is with any OS. I was asking if there are newer parts, starting with the mainboard, that can be installed in this laptop that are mechanically identical. Thanks again.
