Title: Capacitor Galore
Post by: Proxie on October 26, 2012, 12:57:38 am

So this is why my old computer wouldn't POST.

Notice what's left of the eight year old TIM and animal hair from the side panel never being on.  Looks like I have to drag out my soldering iron.  :-\

Hoenstly, if you can fix it, go for it buddy.

I just dont have soldering skills tbh. If you do have those leet skills, then yea better off fixing it yourself.

Post back after you solder it.

Stick it in the oven. Just bake the fucker, that'll fix it.

Microwave is even quicker. Do that.
