    Important to know about capacitors on the motherboard

    What is important to know about capacitors on the motherboard?

    If you replace a new capacitor:
    Can the size of the capacitor be larger or smaller than the original?
    What values are important to be exactly the same as the original uf, a, v, ohm?

    I mean laptop and smartphone motherboards.

      did bad capacitors kill my motherboard or prolonged exposure to faulty psu?
      by stanwebber
      i've got a pretty rare motherboard that i'm evaluating for repair. it's a biostar m7mia-raid which is the only ddr socket a motherboard ever produced, consumer or industrial, with an isa slot. its 20 years old now and finally gave up the ghost last month. i was saving a dd image of the hdd to a portable usb drive when i found it unresponsive with a black screen and a solid lit hdd led. after forcing it to power down it never posted again. the psu/cpu/case fans will spin and the onboard motherboard power led will light up, but no beeps or error codes even with the cmos reset and ram plus all expansion...

      Guide to transplant MEC1503 EC chip and EEPROM reprogamming for T14s gen 2 and X13 gen 2
      by acedogblast
      This is a guide that I am writing for helping others to replace their MEC1503 EC chip if it breaks (or to get around an inconvenient prompt to the BIOS). This forum has been extremely helpful to me so I would like to contribute to help others. I will tell you right now that this task is very difficult to do. You MUST have experience and tools to do precision micro-soldering, BGA reballing, trace repair, and general laptop repair skills.

      There are some specialty tools needed to do this task. The replacement MEC1503 chips can be acquired from Aliexpress. Do not buy the bare chips as...

      After updating motherboard capacitors, what to do next (Asrock K7VT2, SOLTEK SL-75FRN2L)
      by dragon3x
      Hi, I have some 32 bits computer motherboards that need repair, as they fail to
      power on.

      Here are some examples :

      (N.B. "capacitors" indicated here are electrolytic capacitors located in the onboard
      switching supply area).
      (N.B. #2 : I could not find a 3300 microF aluminum-polymer with a higher voltage
      than 6.3 V.)

      1 - Motherboard #1 : this is an Asrock K7VT2 (socket A) that still works well. To put it on test
      I replaced capacitors with aluminum-polymer.
      3300 microF/6.3 V. x 4 replaced by 3300 microF/6.3 V. (KYOCERA...

      Need help identifying capacitors on an MSI MS6163 ver 1. motherboard
      by varkatope
      Hey there, retro fans.

      I have an MS6163 version 1 board I'm trying to repair which was obviously used as a donor because it's missing a few parts, mostly capacitors. There are few high quality images online that would allow me to read the capacitor values (bad angle, blurry photos). I thiiiink I've figured out most of the values for the missing ones except for one in particular, number C210, which is in the bottom-left of the attached photo. Could someone with this board be so kind as to take a look at theirs and tell me the capacitance and voltage values of all the highlighted missing...

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