first off i want to say hello to everyone, im new here and i hope you can help me with my problem , im a computer nerd and have alot of old computers and parts and my uncle gave me a computer motherboard that was made back in 2000 or 2001 or something like that,
and i hooked it up and tried to run it and it wouldnt work or show anything on screen etc, upon looking closer i found that 5 capacitors were blown and leaking,
now i have removed them and cleaned up the old solder, but now i need to know how to clean up the residue from the blown capacitors and also where can i get replacements?
i tried radioshack but the didnt have the ones i need in the right size, they had 4700uf 6.3v but they were way to big, so any help with these questions would be awesome, thanks in advqance
