    A8N SLI-Deluxe not POST-ing - suspect a possible bad cap

    Hi,

    Our ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe is no longer posting. I have taken the machine down to bare-bones, just CPU and motherboard but alas, no POST.

    Everything spins up fan wise, disks etc but nobodys home.

    Having a nose around I came across this:



    It looks like its just slightly leaking. I'm guessing thats my problem right there? If it is, I suppose I could look around to see if there is a board-level repair shop rather than forking out for a new Mobo?

    Just thought it would be good to get some opinions Having read around it seems the Asus A8N boards had *alot* of cap issues!

    Thanks!

    Welcome to the forums! From the looks of it, it's a United Chemi Con, probably a KZG series. A few more pictures would help. If the cap is what I suspect, it needs to be replaced, and a good job would be to replace all of them on the board. Also please note that ASUS uses reverse markings on their boards for polarity of caps. Good luck!
