Got this machine in with no history known but obviously someone has worked on it.
Green light but no boot, No s4 rails present
G3H 12.57 steady
C1031 had balls coming out and is measuring 70.5ohms to GND and 0.041v diode mode measurement
Dont have a donor board for it and none of my other boards seem to have this cap either and I cant find a source in the UK. Are there any substitutes?
And can I just remove it with hot air? was a bit concerned since it was next to cpu
Screw hole next to the cap had the wrong screw in it, but it wasnt screwed down and doesnt look like they penetrated the copper layer. in some areas the solder mask is still intact
