Re: burnt toroid?

Definately recapping the board, also wanted to replace the toroid. Do i just take off the wire, go for a walk down to my local electronics store and ask for wire of the same gauge as what ive got? The round (magnet) looks slightly toasted, its ok to use still, just as long as i wrap it with new wire yes?

Thanks a heap :-)

looking at the board there seems to be a few caps that have died something shocking, they are identifyable. however i have also noticed that the toroid (VRM?) is burnt and seems to be cooking and producing a smell when the machine is on. it will still boot but it incredibly unstable and dies once it has warmed up.

the location of the toroid is right next to 2x 1500uF 10v caps. it has 5 twists of wire excluding its feet that go through the pcb. the board is a MS-6351.

i assume the toroid needs replacing, i just have no idea what to replace it with.

any...
