Hi,
My VP6 has been kind of flaky since day 1. Not many crasches, one or two in a month perhaps, but it almost never posts directly at powerup. (When I have crashes they're almost always complete system frezes.) I have to power up, wait for a minute and then reset and then it posts and starts as normal (if i reset to quickly it usually posts but then freezes during boot up). I've tried switching power supplies, took out/switched around memory modules and upped the voltage but to no positive effect. Then I found this site... And to little surprise I found that a lot of the caps had bulged tops. Therefore I'm up for a transplant.
The problem is that I'm unable to find direct matches for the caps here in sweden. This is what I found on the swedish site http://www.elfa.se
Sanyo low impedance miniatures:
1000 uF 10V D: 10mm H: 16mm
1000 uF 16V D: 10mm H: 20mm
1500 uF 25V D: 12,5mm H: 25mm
So I guess the 1000uF's are OK but how about the 1500uF's, will they work fine? Are they gonna fit in without too much trouble. (all the legs are 0,6mm diam.). I'm not aiming to win a beauty contest here...
grateful for any help,
Johannes
