Hi

I have an ASUS P4B266-LM (OEM for Sony) board which is totally dead (no power up).

The previous owner of board said it only boots sometimes (i haven't got it to power up even once though).

I suspect it's due to a hot capacitor (so hot that it heats up the board within a half inch radius around it). It's not bulging but the top of it's plastic 'jacket' seems to be peeling very slightly.

What do you think then - anyone experienced this hot cap thing before?

Thanks
