Re: Asus P4P800 does not boot
Yes, I cleared the CMOS taking the battery out and switching the bios jumper.
I changed the battery with another one I bought a year ago. I do not know the voltage on it.
But, another motherboard runs with both batteries.
The weird thing is that I put the .rom bios file into a floppy and original ASUS CD which has the .rom bios file into CD drive. Motherboard tries to access them. Floppy drive light and CD drive light keep flickering. But, floppy drive does not make sound like the floppy is read.
But, it can't...Leave a comment:

Asus P4P800 does not boot
I have an ASUS P4P800 motherboard which does not boot. I looked at the capacitors.
I do not see any bad one.
When I turn on the power, all fans turn on. Mouse and keyboard lights come on.
After a few seconds later, motherboard loses power. Mouse and keyboard lights
start to flicker, fans lose speed. As if something is short circuited.
I elevated the motherboard to see to see anything short circuited. That did not help.
I tried 4 power supplies. Same thing, except one power supply did not even turn
on the fans. LED on the... -
Re: I think I have bad caps
i mentioned the boards and internet, but that did help. i then sent the intel advisory link but that did not work either. there is no date or recall. it is just a warning. then, i found a dell extended warranty for these motherwords which is valid until January 2008. i think this helped.Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
Thanks. I did more search on the internet on this issue. I sent all the references to Intel. A few back and forth and they accepted to repair the board.
The problem is they said they need to sent it oversees to fix it and it may take upto 90 days.
That would mean I won't get it before Spring....Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
i forgot to ask. people are suggesting to use wrist strap. is this attached to my wrist or the motherboard? i am thinking getting 60w weller iron. i think it is grounded. do i still need the wrist strap?Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
i read the posts regarding soldering and capping. although, reading is entirely different than doing.
i will go with the MCZ or FM. i will check the prices.Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
Repair will be costly. So, I will try to order and do myself.
So, I will either get Panasonic FM or Rubycon MCZ 10v 1000uf.Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
Does the height matter? I see two capacitors with the same characteristics e.g. 10v 1000uf 8mm diameter but different height, 11mm and 20mm.Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
What replacement should I use for these? Does it matter if it is 6.3V 1000uf or 10V 1000uf? Does the height of the capacitor matter?Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
I did not take the caps out. But, I think they are Nichicon HN(M) 6.3V 820uF A0315 105C.
They are 8mm wide, 20mm long.
I soldered in the past. Although this does not mean I can do it again.
I am around Los Angeles. I am afraid you are located at Ohio.
Floppy drive works on my other motherboard. Media is getting corrupted. But, computer does not even attempt to read the floppy. It is like something is short circuited. I elevated the motherboard and tried to boot like that to see if that might be the...Last edited by behrk; 11-27-2007, 08:57 AM.Leave a comment:

Re: I think I have bad caps
I called Intel twice. Customer service does not sound like familiar with the problem. They keep saying the board is out of warranty. I think they are trained to refuse.
I can "attempt" to replace the capacitors. I am curious if any other component is bad. If people had similar symptoms like I did, I would be more comfortable.
When people had bad capacitors, did this effect other components such as floppy, IDE, PCI, AGP controllers? I am reading that some had their mosfets burnt around the capacitors. I do not see...Leave a comment:

I think I have bad caps
Hi:
I have an Intel D865PERL motherboard which is not booting any longer. It is out of warranty. So, intel is not accepting it for RMA.
When I power on the computer, fans, motherboard light, power LED all turn on. However, TV output does not come. There is no beep, no post.
I first thought bios could be damaged. I tried to do bios recovery but computer can't access to the floppy drive. Interesting thing is that boot damages the floppy. So, I am not sure if the problem is just capacitors. I tried to do USB and CD recovery but they did not work either....
