Probably leaking capacitors, somewhere in time.. any cure ?
« on: April 26, 2006, 07:46:40 PM »
Hi. Bellow is a link to what seems to have been some capacitor leakage in the past (it's dry now, and I'm sure Amiga center took care of it almost 2 year ago). Also some strange white formations around the internal audio connector area. I think it might be getting worse...
What's the best way to handler this ? Wash it over with alcoholl and a soft toothpaste ? Replacing some capacitors ?

@Castellen
Nothing's replaced, the pictures was taken yesterday :cry:
But, and I know it sounds almost a lie, everything is working well, even audio!!
I'll have to take care of this as soon as possible.

@Doobrey

You mean that white thing ? It's strange, cause I'm almost sure when I got the board off ebay this wasn't there. It almost seems like a fungus or something.
