Re: Flaky Dell Precision 670

My Precision 670 is about 6 years old. I did find most of the 1800uF and 2200 uF caps either buldging OR actual physically leaking. Was a painstaking task removing ALL of them (43 in all). Do not attempt this without a good desoldering tool. Only 2 were actually showing good in a cap meter. Most of the 1800uF were reading 300-400, and continued to drop in value. After replacing all 43 caps, machine is now working fine. I recently repaired my kids computer which would fail during bootup. That was a different brand computer. Goes to prove what my electronics...
