Well Id tell them first and foremost before they do anything else you want them to transfer all the data on the drive to a backup drive. Thats first priority. Motherboard burning out shouldn't of affected the data as someone above mentioned. Look on ebay and price out a replacement mobo. If its an older laptop that is what they should of done instead of fucking with trying to replace some usb ports. Normally its just a loose connection that can be fixed pretty easily, so unless the port it self was somehow damaged, I don't get why they would try to replace it.
