    Via C3m266

    I just purchased one of these:

    http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/...-l-cle266.html

    The seller says it worked fine until the capacitors went and it got flakey.

    I'm going to see if I can make a little project out of this and get it going again.

    Should be fun!

      Good luck - there's probably 20+ caps to replace on that one.

          The 1-channel switching voltage regulator incorporates 2 capacitors of 1500 uF and 12 of 1000 uF.
          Shouldn't be that bad, I have plenty of the Panasonics leftover from our friends at Soltek! Plus I get to request "Engineering Samples" every once in a while.

              MD, you are lucky to have friends at Soltek, especially if you get enginnering samples once in a while.

              Good luck with the recapping!

                  Sorry I meant I get engineering samples from suppliers at work. Not Soltek.

                  I emailed Soltek for some sample caps a while back and they sent me two packages of caps.

                          I have replaced all bad caps with the Panasonic FJ's that I received from Soltek...

                          I metered the two pads for the 1500's near the torroids and they appeared to be in parallel so I tossed in a 3300uF... all others are 1000uF.

                          Now I need a Tualatin P3 or celeron and some DDR...

                                  Heh well good luck at it. At least you have it working partially. I am surprised you have not gone up to an A64 yet though.

                                      I have a Biostar on the way for my 3500+

                                      To test the Via board I need to steal some DDR from the home PC...

                                      Maybe this weekend.
