Re: Soltek SL-75DRV5
Recapped one of these boards today, but am having problems with it now the new caps are installed...
I used my pyropen, so there should be no issues with static.
Anyhow - the board starts normally.
But after 5 sec it continually resets like someone is pressing the reset button every second.
I checked all the new panasonic caps and they all have correct polarity.
I am using 2200uF 6.3V Panasonic FJ
and 1500uF 16V Rubycon MBZ
Any ideas?Last edited by paulpsomiadis; 12-28-2007, 12:33 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: ASRock DUAL V-SATA 2
Well, I re-capped the AM2 upgrade board yesterday - everything went great!
(can't test it yet though, as this will be a future upgrade when I have the cash...)
I've decided NOT to use salvaged caps for the mainboard - as they would be harder to fit into those teeny solder holes...
All I have to wait for now is the remaining 470uF caps and I'm good to go.
Pictues after I re-cap the mainboard.
MERRY CHISTMAS folks!Leave a comment:

Re: ASRock DUAL V-SATA 2
Okay, my Pyropen arrived and I figured out it's a:
Weller Pyropen Piezo WPA2 (model number not printed on it ANYWHERE!)
...the problem?
No manual, and I've never used one of these before.
Sure, I'd like to practice on some old PCB's - but I need the manual first.
Anyone got an Idea as to where I can get a .PDF of the manual?
I managed to find a .PDF for the other model (non-peizo) WSTA3...but it's different!
Help me if you can folks...Leave a comment:

Re: ASRock DUAL V-SATA 2
Hallo peeps!
I'm BAAAACK!
Now using my ASRock board, so here's the skinny.
THE GOOD
========
Board works beautifully - everything is very nice!
THE BAD
=======
It's "lets re-install XP and all my software" time!
GROAN!
It wouldn't be such a problem...but I have two 200GB HDDs filled with apps and games...
...should take me about 1 month or so...EEK!
Also, I forgot to backup my desktop...Leave a comment:

Re: ASRock DUAL V-SATA 2
Whoops! just noticed the mistake you mentioned for the Rubycon 1000uF caps...I picked ones with TOO LOW voltage level...DUH!
Also the Rubycon ZLH or YXH are unavailable on eBay...
But I located some Panasonic FK type:

Also decided to change to Panasonic FJ for the 3300uF caps...as I don't need 100pcs of 3300uF caps...it's...Last edited by paulpsomiadis; 11-18-2007, 10:56 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: ASRock DUAL V-SATA 2
Hmm okay...
I'll have to buy the 1000uF cap.s in BULK.
(37 of them in total for the mainboard and the AMD M2 upgrade card)
So would you recommend either Rubycon ZLH or YXH for longer life.
Obviously I'll test the board beforehand...but I figured I'd ask anyway.
Mine also has that 'missing' 3300uF cap at the PSU socket section, but there are many spots with 'blank' cap silkscreen - so aren't they missing because they are no longer needed due to board revision?
Oh and there are...Last edited by paulpsomiadis; 11-18-2007, 09:30 PM.Leave a comment:

Re: Soltek SL-75DRV5
It's worth recapping the board!
Soltek boards run ROCK STABLE.
(despite being covered in poor quality caps that usually need replacing)
It's a true shame that they don't make boards anymore!Leave a comment:

ASRock DUAL V-SATA 2
Just got this mainboard recently as I'm planning to upgrade to an Athlon X2.
I will soon have all the bits I need to test this board, as it was sold as "untested" - from the original eBay auction (translated from Italian with corrected grammar my me)
=============================================
Board does not include cd drivers, or maunal and backplate. The board comes from stock of the shop, but I was not able to test functionality.
In this respect, I do not want to receive negative feedback if the board is not working. If you have...Last edited by paulpsomiadis; 11-17-2007, 09:35 PM.
