Replacing leaky capacitors
One of the mother boards in my retro haul doesn't post and has some shady looking capacitors. Let's replace them in an attempt to get this board working again.

    Hey man great video really educational, I'm in a bit of tough situation, so I got this Zalman 1000w EBT series modular psu, came with only mobo and eps cables, and I did find a pci e cable on the market which turned out to be a corsair type 4, the issue was the psu side of the cable had a double wire in the bottom, and when I probed the psu to test voltage I found that the top is 12v and the bottom is gnd, so should repin the cable and separate those double wires ? Plz help

Thank you for the visual guide. :)

    For testing drives, I'd use a relatively more modern system that still supports IDE like Nehalem. In there, a Windows 7 or 10 system would happily run a surface scan with Western Digital's Data Lifeguard Diagnostics. Or, one can use Hiren's BootCD and run Gateway GWScan off of it which is almost the same as Data Lifeguard Diagnostics. It runs a surface scan, it's faster, and it's on a more stable system.

    Nice looking case, should have used a IDE HDD instead though, and put a PCI slot exhaust fan in it. Personally where ram is concerned I max out whatever the specs for the motherboard say, you get better picture quality that way. If you want USB slots there are cards for that, and you have lots of empty PCI slots. I use a USB drive for files I need like game patches, or any other updates I want. There are tweaks within Windows 98 to increase speed, I'm not going to list them all here; but, more ram is always Better!

    The ess audio drives were pretty good sound blaster clones and should be good for dos since it is isa. I liked that last slot 1 board out of an xps. I've never had a yamaha xg card that worked. It is pretty cool to find integrated like that. Old sound cards aren't so cheap anymore. I've started hording the pci stuff thinking they will go up like the isa cards have.
