    QDI ZillioX 9

    My "favorite" brand caps - DST. They don't bulge on top, just leak from the bottom.
    BTW. The v2.0 BETA BIOS from QDI is piece of crap - it boots only on second attempt. The v1.2 boots fine, although it's crap too. ACPI is totally messed up (the board turns off randomly), supports HDDs only up to 32GB and it can't be patched.
    I've also done a Coppermine mod (connected AH4 (RESET#) and X4 (RESET2#) pins on the CPU socket). Celeron 600 runs fine but BIOS shows Pentium III Xeon 598MHz

      You'd like IQ and Choyo caps. they also just squirt out the bottom. I have some photos of them on this board somewhere...

          Rainbow, what model is your camera? The pics look way worse than my Kodak DX7630.

              It's web camera (no brand there ) from around 1998 (most probably with cheap CMOS sensor). It has analog composite video output that's connected to Bt848A-based video capture card - so the resolution is PAL - 768x576.
              I don't feel like buying a camera just for

                  I think QDI motherboards are junk. I had a QDI Advance 3 motherboard, it came with DST caps. My QDI Advance 3 could only be stable up to 64MB of RAM on an AMD K6-2 450 or anything higher than 64MB would cause the system to be unstable and always froze in Windows 98 and ME. The freeze was the freeze that you had to push the restart button to correct. I recapped my QDI board with Nichicon low-ESR caps but the problem still existed. I recapped all 12 of the DST caps with Nichicon low-ESR replacements of the same value. And there was something strange with three of the DST caps, they were bulging at the top, not leaking from the bottom like Rainbow said.

                      One of those old Socket 7 chipsets only supported 64mb properly, you could put more in, it would see it, but it did not work out right. I think it was the Intel TX?

                          I have PCPartner TXB820DS with i430TX chipset and it works fine with 128MB.

                              Yes, you read that right, the bug that HP/Compaq never fixed is finally no more, 16 years later. You probably don't care but here it is anyway.

                              Bug

                              Basically the bug is as follow: you want to use Linux on this machine, but it doesn't power off when you shut it down, you cannot put it to sleep, nouveau driver for NVidia GPUs doesn't load, etc…
                              At boot, you may be greeted by the following message:
                              Code:

                              KDL-60EX500. Comes on fine, sound is fine, backlights come on. Blank screen. Already tried reset POWER/VOL-. Anyone else have this problem? Possibly bad T-Con RUNTK4244ZZ or panel? Could main or power supply cause this? There were 2 blown 560u 35v on power going to backlights but they were still working fine. Thanks for your help.

                              by CapLeaker
                              Got a case of something new weird at work. There is an old 2nd gen Intel i3 in an old “Pizza box” shell that has a small form factor power supply. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures and model number off it.

                              Anyway, I get to work and get to look at this computer. Standby LED on the PSU is on, but the computer won't start. Hmm o.k. take the battery out of the main board try again, nothing. O.k. then… unplug the power supply from the main board and put in a full size ATX PSU (yeeeesss! Exact that blown Powerman IP that I fixed a while back), plug it in and the old...

                              RTX3090 working fine but fans not spinning
                              by emil_t
                              Hello guys. I have a problem with a PNY XLR8 GAMING RTX3090 graphics card. The problem is that it displays and works fine, but the fans don't spin at all. The problem occurred when someone else removed the fans in order to clean it and broke one of the fan connectors. He replaced it himself and after that, it wasn't working anymore. I guess he damaged something else in the process. What i have done so far: I found 2 capacitors next to the connector that were in a bad shape, he must have touched them with his tools - they weren't shorted, but i replaced them with similar ones from a similar card....
