    Netvista OEM PIII motherboard...

    IBM Netvista PIII OEM motherboard
    Fully integrated Intel 810E Chipset
    2257-84A

    Well it's certainly been a busy time here lately, at this rate I'll need to resupply my stock of capacitors, latest acquisition has been a complete IBM Netvista Mini-Tower system based on an integrated Intel 810E chipset & Intel Celeron 1000Mhz circa H2 2001, it's symptoms include rebooting and auto-power downs (amongst others) SHAME IBM... SHAME!!!

    Upon closer inspection, I noted an excessive number of bloated & discolored YEC capacitors, Chhsi variants are also present (in a stand-off fashion) but only represent the sub 500uF components, currently the butcher's Bill stands at...

    2 x 3900uF 6.3v (peculiar size methinks!)
    6 x 2200uF 6.3v
    2 x 1500uF 6.3v
    3 x 1000uF 6.3v (just because they're YEC)

    Below I've included pictures of the bloated & crusty (read as NASTY) YEC's

      YECs can bulge and fail without ever having been powered up - in fact, I've seen bulged YEC in unopened packs. Wonder how it got past IBM's much-vaunted vendor-qualification processes - probably wouldn't have happened at the old IBM. But with mostly managers and IT consultants being the composition of the new IBM, I'm not too surprised that they were forced to sell off their desktop and mobile businesses to Lenovo.

          I can see why they had to sell just by looking at those pictures. That's a major blow to the later IBMs, in my opinion...
          You know there's something wrong when you open up a PSU and are glad to find Teapos.
          Why I don't buy cheap cases!

                  Yeah, my collection of (repaired) pre-loved PC's & components is ever on the increase, only the 3900uF capacitors will be holding this job off completion

                  I suppose I could sell it, but being a unrepentant horder... I'll find an excuse to keep it around

                      I have a similar IBM board - with i815. They mixed Nichicons with Teapos and even Chhsi

                          I'd love to get a hold of one of those IBM machines, recapped, clean install and off to my parents.. they'd love it.

                              LMAO well your board certainly faired better than my variant, I would've prefered the Nichicons (or Teapos) to these filthy YEC's

                              Yeah they definitely have an attractive looking case, this one even came with an internal 56K modem, though I'm not too fond of the propriety designed PSU, I went to plug it in and ZAP! the darn thing tripped the circuit breakers... no obvious internal damage, however I scrapped it for the Nichicon PM series & Rubycon capacitors

                              Long & the short of it, I'll now have to locate/modify a PSU if I still wish to use this blue/black Netvista case

                                  Well after locating some 3900uF's I finally finished this IBM Pro300A_AFP's long overdue recap & with a modded OEM 200w PSU plus an additional HDD cooling fan (Vertical HDD's is a bad idea IMHO) the job was complete, now what to do with yet another surplus PC? that's another story

                                      Asus ROG Strix Scar G533qm with a G733qm Motherboard, can I modify the Bios to accept G533 Bios

                                      Hello,

                                      I have a Asus ROG Strix Scar 15 (G533QM) that had a dead motherboard (Graphics card dead) and after trying to fix the motherboard with no success, I bit the bullet on a sale for a new motherboard. I ordered a motherboard for the 15 inch model which is the one that I have, and when the motherboard arrived it wasn't for a little while that I saw it was from the 17 inch model.

                                      My question is, can I update the Bios on this G733 motherboard to a G533 Bios.

                                      The reason for wanting to do this is that the keyboard isn't working as it should, and I think this...

                                      Hi everyone 😀,

                                      I'm here today to ask for help with repairing the motherboard of a Lenovo Legion Y540 17IRH.

                                      To give you some context, I'm passionate about computer repair so much so that I've invested in a lot of tools and started practicing on dead and old hardware. I've been learning how to solder and desolder components, mostly focusing on phone repairs.

                                      Recently, I bought a broken Lenovo Legion Y540 17IRH for just €150, and there are two main reasons why I made this purchase:
                                      1. I already own the exact same model, but its plastic chassis is badly damaged.
                                      ...

                                      Hi folks,

                                      I have a couple of IBM NetVista desktop computers from around 2000-2001. They have Universal Scientific Industrial (USI) Pro286i motherboards, 733MHz Pentium III processors, and a whole bunch of bad Teapo capacitors. One board has visibly bad and venting capacitors, while the other doesn't look too bad so far.

                                      The board with venting caps works fine, while the good looking board occasionally refuses to power on unless it's left for about 30 seconds after connecting the power - even with a known good power supply. (I am however aware I'll need to check the PSU...

                                      Subject is a blank screen issue in HP Envy 17-3290NR 3D version laptop with motherboard Louis V1.1 6050A2489901 MB-A02. Production year is 2012. This one is a 2nd hand motherboard which I could use it for few months only. Suddenly no output from the internal display and also no signal from HDMI port then Windows out of order after few boots.

                                      Caps lock working normally and no HP's caps-lock warning blinks. Making a hard reset and replacing the RAM sticks or using different slots didn't help.

                                      ASUS P5GC-MX motherboard recap

                                      Here’s another motherboard that needed a full recap: an ASUS P5GC-MX.
                                      This one was gifted to me some years ago by user Pentium 4, along with a few other goodies. It actually came in working order with no bulging or leaking caps. However, I noted there were United Chemicon KZG caps everywhere on the motherboard. The CPU VRM output (CPU V_core) was the only exception: it had only 2x KZG. The rest was 6x UCC TMV 4V 680 uF caps… which aren’t any good news either.

                                      So here is what the motherboard looked like with its original caps:
