Default XBOX - blown capacitor

Hi,

My xbox was damaged due to lightning. It appears that one capacitor was
quite thoroughly fried.

There is a picture he http://nullset.myphotos.cc/xbox/jpg
(Look for C7G6 in the bottom right corner, next to the nice burn
mark....)

I want to solder another capacitor on the board in it's place, but I'm
not sure what the value of the old one was, or how critical that value
might be.

I believe that this part of the board has something to do with power
regulation, because of the large capacitor that is in the area.

Any suggestions?
