Re: Gateway moboard won't post after recap
Done. I pulled the CPU, checked all pins as well as the CPU socket, plugged CPU back in, still no go.

Re: Gateway moboard won't post after recap
Yeah I'm sure it was tested. I also visually inspected the board and didn't see anything obvious (physical damage to components, damaged traces, ect.)
I tried another known good power supply, also took the power supply out of the system and tried it in another system to verify it being good. Worked fine.

Sorry I should have stated I sent it to Badcaps.net for recapping.

Gateway moboard won't post after recap
I have a Gateway GT5420E motherboard that I just got back from recapping. The caps were open and leaking or bulging.
Anyway, the board won't post. No video, just VERY loud case fans. I have pulled or unplugged everything except the CPU and the 2 power connectors to the motherboard. I am sort of new here, just posted one question before I sent the board in for repair.
Any help is greatly appreciated, this is for a customer of mine Who Wants Their Computer Back

Gateway GT5240E recap
I have a Gateway GT5240E desktop motherboard that needs a recap.I looked inside and sure enough there are 7 caps around the processor that are blown, most leaking. And also sure enough, I cannot read a value on any of the caps (the ones that are blown). They all look the same. There is a number stamped on top of them "5D 680 J4" it looks like, but that doesn't sound like a cap value. I'd like to recap this board (i used to do Electronic repair work years ago) but I don't know what the value of the caps are. Anyone? I'm new here. Thanks
