Straight swapout of PCB will do you no good at all. Chip on original board (NVRAM) contains information that must be copied to new board.

If the PCB will be absolutely the same version it will work. I did this several times before and it never failed. I just need the exact PCB version. Does anybody have it for sale? Please help! Thank you.

Certainly, if you're able to match all four lines on the PCB this will be true. But what a headache to search for that! Easier to transfer NVRAM chip to compatible board if your soldering skills are up to it.
