Recapping won't help ... notice the power transistor with the center turned to white ash!

give me the number off the other 2 and I'll see if I can find you a replacement.

Thanks for the offer JTWill ...

Let us bury the honored dead.

The dead mobo is an ECS K7S5A ... I have a (new in box) Shuttle AN35N400 Ultra which wasn't committed to anything ...

Seems like a fine upgrade to me ....

the transistor is what I meant. Probably best to bury it, you never know what else went with it.

The dead mobo is an ECS K7S5A

I have one here that died the exact same death.

Looks like it had some leaky caps to go with it..

Has happened to me with several of those K7S5As.... I generally don't replace them with K7S5As when then go. In my experience, the ram & cpu & everything else should be fine. Nonetheless... a moment's silence...

 

[trevinom]

A moment it is.

 

[BadThad]

Quality! lol

May she rest in peace with the three of mine who are in MB heaven as well.

Bows head in moment of silence,

Ok, net mobo!

I also use the AN35N and it has always served me good. Has some nice OC potential if you want to venture into tha realm.

:beer:

I too have been "forced" to retire about half of the K7S5A's I put into service.
They were, however, cost effective systems at the time so I don't feel bad about that.

A moment's silence for your loss...

My condolences to you and your horde.
