My station/webcam down at the moment due to a dead computer, motherboard died, had to take it to a computer shop to recover the cumulus folder, HOPEFULLY picking up a 2nd hand PC tonight to get it all back up and running again

You'd be surprised at the nimber of motherboards, power supplies, DVD readers, Dishwashers, etc I repair for the "Domed Capacitor" problem
Sometimes it is better to replace the whole motherboard than to change 8 or 10 capacitors on a multilayer board.
Good luck with the 2nd hand computer....have a look inside to see if the capacitors are domed
