I simply can not believe this....
Today I decided to shut my machine down for a few minutes to reorganize my PCI card for better air flow to my RAID adapter. THATs when I noticed it! Three of my main capacitors are LEAKING!!!!!!!!!
Good news: At least that would explain some of the strange problems I have been having recently.
Bad news: I have to unsolder those capacitors and replace them with newer ones before the board goes completely dead.
Here is what I need: For some one that has the EP-8RDA+ board and has easy access to it, I need to know the ratings of the (4) capacitors that are between the voltage regulators and the interface ports on the side of the MB. These capacitors are on the LEFT side of the voltage regulators, the furthest row from where the CPU socket is.
I cant get a good look in there and I would have to tear out the whole MB and case in order to get a good look. Since the system is still functioning (using it right now) I want to avoid tearing it down until after I have the right capacitors to do the repairs.
Thanks to everyone in advance.
