Re: Is recap needed?



It look like it was done by screwdriver or some tool, i bought this board with this "gift".



No it is not a bad cable, when i connect hdd and dvd-rom to secondary ide with that same cable everything works fine. I also checked all solder points of primary ide connector and everything looks ok.



lol, me too ...

First i would like to say hello to everyone as this is my first post.

I bought recently Asus A7N266-VM board to build a office/internet rig for my father. This board is rev. 1.05 and it has Rubycon caps around NB,CPU and AGP and OST caps around SB and RAM.

Do i need to change OST caps, none of them have bulges but i have a problem with Primary IDE controller as it corrupts data, on secondary controller everything works fine, and should i change cap with some kind of a dent shown on a pic....
