the capasitors around the CPU look ok. and yes the brand is HM (M) their not buldging and no leaks. i didnt know that capasitors play a vital role in a computers proformance. my cpu temperature form an average of 50 to 55 when the computer was idle during the time i didnt replace the caps went down to an average of 35 to 40!!!!!!!!!!! WOW! im amazed! and video encodeing is a breeze! once again! thank you bad caps! i'll spread the word here on how replaceing my bad capasitors helped alot!

ok after a few weeks of using em jackson caps! i can sence a few glitches here and there! 1st off i removed my RAM and used the original ram 256mb pc 3200 after that i removed it and put the 2gb pc 6400 (only 1gb is recognized) the system seems to run a little hot. then when i went to the bios screen i couldn't select or modify any options. i had to reset it using the jumper on the motherboard. then everything went back to normal. i wonder how long would thease crappy caps survive.

I wouldn't wait to find out because you could damage something else ...

Yeah, those caps won't do you right friend and the likelyhood of damage will cause you more trouble when you have to buy new motherboard. As Per said the only poly caps that are going to help are on the vcore output. Even the good high end capacitors are WAY less than a board. And they handle temperatures up to 105 Celsius. Good Luck

Not sure if your memory was being discovered correctly or not now, but I've had a few motherboards with 2 slots (not 4) that would ONLY recognize a matched pair. If they were different sticks, only one would be recognized. There was no option to not run dual channel on these specific boards.

Thought I'd throw that in there, as it had me stumped for a bit.

I wouldn't be surprised if the half-detected RAM was also causing problems.
