If it's a Pentium 3 board, I'd suggest that you look for a 2nd hand replacement instead. Cos to replace bloated caps on a mobo is not only tedious, it can also get quite expensive. If you really want to repair the board, then you need to get caps that are made by Rubycon or at least equivalent quality, else the new caps will bloat up very soon as well. Rubycon caps range from S$1.20 each for a 330uF to almost S$9 each for a 6300uF. Unless of course you manage to buy them in loose quantities from someone who has purchased them in bulk.

Thanks all brother..

 

actually i guess it is the motherboard problem as it hang and stop or restart by itself..

so thinking it i buy a new P3 board..what if it does not work again..

 

maybe best to change and upgrade the PC to a cheap one..

Costs a lot.

 

Otherwise you can look for Danbaey in Hardwarezone. Not sure whether he still got time for it.
