On the plus side it might not be the board itself, as that capacitor is probably across the power planes, but there are a lot of other capacitors and stuff that you will need to rule out. </div></div><div style="font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:13px;color:#26282a;border-left: 1px solid #ccc;padding-left: 8px;margin: 0px 0px 0px 8px" class="ydpa53135e3inline_reply_quote_container" data-split-quote-node="true"><div><div dir="ltr"><br></div></div>
