Product: Pavilion 15z 1GK61AV_1
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

If a laptop is sold with the option to upgrade to a backlit keyboard, but  you don't purchase it at the time, does the system board of that PC equipped with option to be upgraded later or is it shipped with a non-upradeable board? I forgot to add the backlight option when I ordered. It's too late to change my order as its already on its way. Am I better off exchanging it?

It is a CTO machine, you MAY BE able to have motherboard with connectors for a backlit keyboard. But the chance is 50/50. It may cost you heaps now for just getting a backlit keyboard.

 

Please check where you order your machine.

I was afraid of that. If I exchange it, I might not get the sale price. and it will be expensive. I'll wait and see what motherboard it has when it arrives. Thanks for your response!
