Re: Fan running, board not working

Yes, it worked before, but them it has random system crashes or freezes sometimes. So, I checked the memory on another board and it worked fine. I check the video on another board it worked fine also. I checked the board for bad caps or burnt fets but didn't find any visual problem and so I opened up the PSU only to find out bulging Taiwan made caps.

Re: Fan running, board not working

Re: how to rewire 15 pin SVGA connector

And I don't want to work with my computer with my right hand on the mouse and the other on the monitor cable. So I pressumed it is a loose wiring inside the cable and it was near the connector to the video card. Problem is its too difficult to rewire since its too close to the connector. So I cut the 15 pin SVGA wire from one of my damaged monitor (they say flyback not working). The cut wire has black, white, yellow, brown...
