Replacing motherboard capacitors
Just tried powering up an old (386) PC, and was greeted with an acrid
smell and a puff of smoke; one of the motherboard capacitors had blown. I'd like to try replacing it, but my main concern is: what rating should I buy as a replacement? The surviving originals are all marked "10+ 16J". -- John Elliott |
