Default Compaqs with Bad Motherboard Capacitors

Inherited a Compaq Presario with Bad Motherboard Capacitors.

Did not realize that the Bad Caps were probably causing problems for a
long time.

Was blaming Windows!

Am wondering how may other Compaq owners are having or have had this
problem? Hard to believe I am the only one! Did a search but was
overwhelmed with the number of hits!! so decided to post this question
here.

FYI here are some links to the "Bad Cap Prob"

You may want to open your Compaq and check! Have been told some will
work even if leaking!

Also appreciate and links or suggestions from others concerning this
