    Samsung RV515 turning on then off

    Sometimes it will even turn itself on after being turned on. Sometimes it gets up to the "Windows Logo" screen then shuts off. I have to wait for minutes before turning it on again so that it doesn't turn off again...

    CPU and GPU temperature are fine, nothing going on there.

    At first I think it's the power button being faulty. So I look on eBay to see what it looks like and what do you know -- there's a fat juicy cylindrical capacitor right on the power on board. Looks like this:

    I have not opened the laptop itself to find out, just guessing here in my amateur dx.

    What do you guys think it could otherwise be?
