Re: Building a gaming rig for my dad...

Sounds like a fun project, maybe you could get it all going with just a new mainboard and not be out by much?
If your dad prefers older operating systems remember that Win7 only works natively with...

Re: How can I desolder chock coil in PGA370 socket mainboard

You could probably get away with replacing this capacitor with either 1200µF or 2200µF.
But they need to be low ESR capacitors, otherwise it will not work.
Below is the datasheet of the original...

Re: How can I desolder chock coil in PGA370 socket mainboard

After the above questions above I would look into the capacitors.
It looks like the sticky gunk under the coil came from the capacitors.
Because in your latest pictures I can see it also under the...

Re: Mitsubishi Melservo MR-J2S-100A alarm: AL.E9

Nice, thanks for posting the solution.
It might be a good idea to get the communication cable.
So you can actually check the bus voltage and be 100% sure of the fix :)

Re: Heres a fun one. 630w dual bulb Ceramic Metal Halide Transformer

I attached your photo to the OP.
It looks to me like a component near the transformer has exploded.
Maybe that resistor but it is not really visible in your picture.

Re: Nichicon PC(M) replacement

It could be glue but then you would expect the same under other components so I guess not.
It looks like the board is conformally coated, maybe the electrolyte somehow dissolved that and created...

Re: Corsair AX850 low 12v and 5v voltage with random reboots.

That's really impressive you found the culprit in such a complex PSU!
Did you take any pictures of the capacitor that was bad and its location?
Maybe it could help someone in the future...

Re: Corsair AX850 low 12v and 5v voltage with random reboots.

If the unit got hotter than 110°C for a few hours then it is possible.
Why don't you use the warranty claim, these come with a 10 year warranty.

Re: Corsair AX850 low 12v and 5v voltage with random reboots.

It is highly unlikely to be bad capacitors: this range of power supplies uses good capacitor brands.
Have you used a multimeter to measure the 12v voltage or what is the source you know for it being...

Welcome to Badcaps!
Your servo also has the LCD display, it is just in another location.

Yes, you can set the size with the -l parameter in Windows, like so:

Should be around a megabit or so.
There are better ways, like copying a file over the network of course :)

Re: Boston Acoustics Soundware 5.1 SUB: Agonizing coil whine!

The ferrite on that transformer is not aligned well, that might be the issue.
But I would be really careful about realigning it as it could crack, and then it is game over.
Easiest might be to try...

Re: Enermax Liberty ECO 400W [ELT400AWT] - from scraped to serviced

Nice writeup, I would measure the main bulk capacitor, just to make sure the noise is not from it being failed.

Re: General question about oscilliscopes

Agreed, but this one and the other is very useful to keep in the back of your mind when you work with a scope.
Both of these can otherwise make you come-a-gutsa :D

Re: Intel DQ45CB No Boot

It is unlikely to help, the capacitor is made by YC (Yang Chun) (http://capacitor.web.fc2.com/y.html#yc) series LE but I can't find a datasheet.
That said it is likely to be lower ESR than the GP...

Re: Question on AC grounding - found an old device that has me confused

Yep, the high value resistor (see posts #8 and on) makes it "sorta ok" in the old days.
It is still retarded though: because if there is a failure in the 20 cent Chinesium transformer that puts the...

No, in the old days they used a wooden box, and plastic knobs.

Re: Question on AC grounding - found an old device that has me confused

That's a death trap: if you reverse the AC plug the chassis will be live.
Sure in the US & UK the plug it is polarized, but it is very common to have the live and neutral reversed in the outlet....
