I ran a back-up right before it died. It's currently dead and will look into repair costs etc, I don't think warranty will cover this even if I am under it still.

Also Because the motherboard definitely needs replacing, will I lose my information? Does anyone know if the information is stored on that or connected to it in some sort of way? I just don't want to lose my data.

Thanks for the timely responses!! And if anyone has a link to this ebay charger/battery combo that would be great, I am not sure what to look for.

Thanks again everyone!
