Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

hello my name is jaime and i have been taking things apart since i was a child i remember when i was ten and my favorite radio/alarm clock stopped working so i opened it up and noticed the the power cord was fried so i went in search of something to fix it with and came across my step dads electric shaver and i took the power plug from that and wired it to fit the clock radio and fixed it that was about 24 years ago and it still works to this day and i didnt even get shocked ok well maybe a little lol

hey everyone i am new and have a problem with my motherboard its a MSI MS-7548 and it has one blown capacitor and i was wondering should i replace it if its just one and what brand should i get to replace it also i heard i should go up a step like if the capacitor is a 6.3v 1000uf i should get a higher voltage so it doesn't blow again also it it normal that only one is bad i mean i looked at every one of them and only one is obvious this pic is not of my actual board but i just wanted to show you what one it is
