Ben,
This is how I would explain it..
<<use passive voice " ...to have been operating abnormally"<<< . " ...To have been operating abnormally" is not passive voice but present perfect progressive. It will take a real grammarian to explain the proper working of this tense. But I believe it’s correctly used.
But “was found to have been operating abnormally” is passive construct which was the state the board prior to your discovering it. This part, yes, it's passive
2) >>>Is it correct if i use " in returning to normal performance" instead of " to return to?>>>
No, “to replace the mother board for the computer to return to normal performance” is correct. The sentence requires infinitive not participle form of the verb “return”
