Re: A8ae-le
I have this board. There are two caps between the pci-e and pci slots. The 470 is the one closest to the end of the slots. -
Re: A8ae-le
Thank you very much... I'll be able to get back to that board and finish it up tomorrow. BillComment

Re: A8ae-le
I have an HP m7100e with A8AE-LE motherboard. I was watching a video when the screen froze and no mouse or keyboard ability. Then it shut down. I powered it back up and it went to the Windows Xp screen and shut down again. Went to power it on again and this time no post or video and no HDD activity light, fans running at high speed. Would not turn off by holding down the power switch. Then it would power on just by plugging in the power cord, and could no longer power off by pressing the power switch. Disassembled and reinstalled everything. Unit no longer turns on just by power cable but will not switch off from power switch. Only cap that I can tell is swollen and leaking is PCE31, but I have no idea if this cap would be responsible for this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.Comment

Re: A8ae-le
Can you post any pics of the board? It would make it easier to identify what caps are of a brand that need to be replaced. Caps will sometimes fail without being visibly damaged.Ludicrous gibs!

Re: A8ae-le
I'm recapping this board too and have stupidly removed and lost track of where the three 16v 1000uf caps are located. If anyone who has this board can let me know it would be greatly appreciated. (oh why must they make them all the same colour brown) Thanks!Comment

Re: A8ae-le
If I had to guess, it would be in the CPU VRM section by the pink parallel port. That is where you normally see 16V 1000uF caps (or higher). See

PS. Remember ASUS motherboards have their caps installed "backwards".--- begin sig file ---

Re: A8ae-le
Yeah, you are most likely correct. There is those group of three near the parallel port also a group of three near the left upper cpu socket and a group of four at the left lower cpu socket. If someone has this board I'd like to confirm the location though before I change them back.Comment

Re: A8ae-le
I found an asus a8n-vm closeup online that uses a similar layout. The 16v caps do appear to be in a row located near the parallel port. The only difference is that only the top 3 were used on my board and the bottom one was empty. Does this look correct? Thanks!Attached FilesComment

Re: A8ae-le
That is where I would expected to see the 1000uF 16V caps.
On the 3 or 4 ASUS boards that I have worked on, the 16V caps are normally in and around that parallel port area.--- begin sig file ---

Re: A8ae-le
Those 16v in post #12 are VRM-in.
Not where you'd find a 470uF.
Some cheaped-out boards use 1000uF there but 1200-2200uF is far more common.
Those three -DO- need to be 16v caps, they are on 12v.
~~~~~
470uF in 16v show up in random places on boards.
They don't usually need the 16v rating as usually they are actually on 5v or less.
[Don't assume that... Check it with a meter or use a 16v cap...]
They wanted 470uF and the 8 or 10 mm can that 16v 470uF often come in to get ESR low.
The 16v was 'on sale' that week. [Joking, but you get the point I think.]
*If* the actual voltage is 5v or less then a 10v or 6.3v cap with the same or lower ESR will work fine.

Re: A8ae-le
Sorry, I kind of hijacked an old thread about the same board - different caps. The original poster solved the 470 location problem early on. The 16v 1000uf I was looking for are probably for the main 12v input. The board actually boots and runs with the 6.3v there but it probably won't last long before they pop so I wanted to replace them with the correct ones.Comment

Hello everyone,
First, the data in brief:

So far I've been a silent reader, but now I need your help
I bought a laptop. The seller said the bios was locked. I was looking for a way to remove this ban.
I then got the CH341A and pulled the corresponding files from here https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...evices-and-ele... -

My pc updated bios through Windows Update and I was greeted with BLACK SCREEN WITH CPU FAN MAX SPEED. I don't think there is even a screen signal, because it triggers my monitor for a couple seconds and then the monitor turns off. I tried the other outputs as well.- I tried clearing bios, resetting bios, removed the CMOS battery, removed m.2 ssd, wifi, and ram. Still black screen with CPU fan blasting.
- I tried using the Lenovo BIOS CD and BIOS USB, but neither worked. At least I couldn't get anything to work.
- I could only locate two chips that look like bios chips. Could someone verify this
