Re: Dell optiplex GX620 SFF bad caps, Suggestions or help. Thanks for the replies, I don't think ill even pretend to have the confidence to attempt re capping the board but thanks for the good info, I cant screw it up because at the moment its my only machine and i don't have the cash to drop on a comparable, even flea bay machine with the holidays draining my pockets!
Just looking for suggestions on how to make it last as long as it can.
Just an hour ago i finally was able to speak to someone who knew what i was talking about at dell with the recalls for the bad caps & was a little embarrassed to find out that the whole process ended in 2008.. LOL whoops...
All the research on the net has lead me to believe i should be counting my blessings that its still a speedy stable machine. I cant exactly say when it happened but sometime within the last few or so weeks because i religiously clean the heat sink since the machine has a horrible habit of caking absurd amounts of dust on the front air intake which drives me crazy! |

I had caps go bad on a Dell PWS 530 a couple of years ago and found a business-oriented repair/service company that had convenient drop-off locations and seemed very professional. Was very pleased with the results. Maybe you would be similarly lucky. |
