Hi all,
OK, my Shuttle PC turns on but won't POST (motherboard FD32) and I believe that I have found the problem (see thumbnail image). Now before I jump in with my soldering iron I have a few questions that I hope can be answered.
1. From my image above you will see that a Mosfet has suffered from the bad cap and I wonder if the whole repair is now viable due to the way the component/motherboard looks? There seems to be some serious discolouring (burning)? on the transistor legs and a noticeably lighter area on the underside on the motherboard.
2. If I'm advised that the repair is worthwhile then I intend to replace all 7 10V 1000UF 105c caps and wondered if these are acceptable? _http://uk.farnell.com/panasonic/eeufc1a102/capacitor-1000uf-10v/dp/9691952
3. There are several larger caps rated at 16v 1500uf 105c and 6.3v 1800uf 105c. Do I need to replace these or just the ones near the CPU?
TIA.
