The motherboard won't POST, most of the time it won't even start properly - the PSU fan spins up but the CPU fan doesn't. It looks like it gets a little bit of power then the power is shut off.
Last week I was able to get it to boot a couple of times with the CPU fan not spinning at all.
All of the caps look OK but I'm still suspicious. Most are Nichion HM, a few Evercons, G-Luxons and two Panasonic caps (3300uF 6.3V). All 1500uF 16V caps around the CPU socket are Nichion HM H0609.
Bad caps or not?
UPDATE: I had some spare time so I decided to replace all four 1500uF 16V Nichions with Samxon GC caps.
After I push the power button, the CPU fan starts to spin after 3 seconds. Still no POST, no beeps. Any other suggestions?
