That capacitor looks bad indeed. Don't power up the board without replacing it, or else be prepared to receive shrapnel.
The little brown connector between the PCI slots and the power connector is for a special sound daughter card. Without that card you won't get any sound from the integrated codec. |

With any luck, a GX1-300 will work on it. _________________ The only thing I hate more than straightening CPU pins is having CPU's with bent pins in my collection. |
