    MSI Eclipse X58

    Another casualty of poor installation, picked it up from teh interwebs.

    SMT capacitors knocked off of the back, some are near microscopic.

    Tips for measuring and replacing them? There's no way my ESR meter would measure them and the capacitance function on my multimeter only does nF... doesn't seem to give me any useful reading.

    Also, apologies for the abysmal pictures, best I can do until there's some natural light.

    He he, I've tried this before. It didn't bode well for me. All I ended up with was chapped fingertips.
    "We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."
