Re: CMOS battery life
Would it make ANY difference if the OP's ( Shodan486) board had the cmos jumper in the OFF position?
As I understand it, all regular lithium etc cells have a limited lifespan. Thankfully they're not expensive to replace. I'd never throw a board for the lack of one!

Re: Can anyone identify this cap?
Hmm i suppose it's obvious when you know what you're looking at, me, personally, CLUELESS !
Just as well I'm only replacing like for like, and not trying to bodge things
So, being a numpty.. what would I go into a shop and ask for?
I'll guess it's a metal film cap of some sort ( they all have their own names dont they... I've named this one Barry for now
he's good mates with his friend above ( previously known as Robin red blob ) lol.
Thanks for the help, I dont know...Leave a comment:

Re: Can anyone identify this cap?
Here's just one more.... I've NO IDEA what value it is, I've googled the numbers, tried Ebay etc.... Any clues? is it all JEDEC stuff? ( i say Jedi because you'd have to be as masterful as one to know these things )
Dimensions are roughly 9mm dia ( round bit )
5mm thick
Legs are 10.5mm apart (:
ooh err ) and are offset, as in, if I lay it on it's back ( oh mrs ! ) left leg is bottom right, right leg is top left.. if you get what I mean .
MANY MANY THANKS.. I WILL resurrect...Leave a comment:

Can anyone identify this cap?
Hi, i blew an electrolytic cap on a freeview box ( UK digital terrestial ) ,
so I changed the cap ( and it's immediate neighbor ) for new , same spec.
I changed the 1N4007 rectifier diode ( 1A 1000v ) on the 240v input and the 200kOhm resistor that was sat parrallel to it.
I have this capacitor here ( see pic ) but I'm not sure what it is...
can anyone identify it from the markings and dimensions???
my guess is a 630v 470nf metal foil in a polypropylene casing?
or have I got the figures very wrong? 472J ?? what is that?

Re: Abit NF-M2SV recappin
I went ahead and used Nichicon caps ( for the 1800uF )
Oh My DAYS!!!! What solder are Abit using ! ????
That stuff just did'nt want to liquify, even adding fresh to get it going.
I started out with my trusty Antex 25w solering iron and a bevel/chisel bit.. nope, not having any of it... ( although i did manage to get the neg sides of two caps out using that... positives did'nt want to know )
Took the plunge, drove the 50 mile round trip to get a 50w solder station from Maplin Electronics ( here...Leave a comment:

Re: Abit NF-M2SV recappin
Hi, I'm a newbie here.. I found this thread after searching the board model.
I have the same board here ( from my nephews pc ) and interestingly, the caps you list above 1500uf 6.3v and shown in the photos,
are 1800uf 6.3v on the board I have here.
A few are bulging, so all need to be changed as they're OST anyways.
The duff ones are OST 1800uf 6.3v RLZ series 22mm tall, 8mm wide.
There are a couple of 8mm tall x 5mm wide 22uf 25v G-Luxon caps that are on the outermost edge of the vrm cap row that...Leave a comment:
