Re: Creative Gigaworks S750

Thank you!
I will look into the links and see if I can find the cause of the problem.

Thank you again, your help is much appreciated!

Re: Creative Gigaworks S750

Do you think it would be worth replacing the small capacitor (and the damaged electrolytic one), without finding the other faulty part? This is the only obvious fault I find

Would any 1uF capacitor do?

Re: Creative Gigaworks S750

I managed to clean the area around the burned one, and it seems to say C40 (attached fig).
So probably a capacitor then?...

Re: Creative Gigaworks S750

Hi!
I just noticed that my S750 only outputted sound on the front and rear channels. No sub/center or side. After some google-ing I found this fantastic site! I hope you can help me =)
After opening it up I found that something had burned/exploded (see fig. 1).
On the other card there seem to be a similar configuration, still intact (fig. 2).
The question is: Do you think it is the same? And what is it? My experience with electronics is limited, and all it says on it is "105".
Is this the same as a 1uF capacitor?...
