    I actually contemplated that - heck, I know how to solder. Is it pretty straight-forward? I am assuming it's one of the 14 larger capacitors that's bad... but I can't quite tell what type of capacitor I need for replacement...

        You'll probably want to replace the whole series of filtering caps by the CPU socket.

            Indeed. That's one of the links that was given to me on the Abit forum. #4 and #7 apply to my situation.

            I thought about ordering the parts from him, but didn't want to have to wait another week to get parts. I've had this rig too long already...
