Hi, I powered my old compaq portable III for the first time for years, and bad surprise : electrical sounds and smoke... I quickly unplugged the machine power supply and have disassembled it : burned capacitors. So I'm now checking with a multimeter all capacitors on the mainboard in order to determine which one are working and which one should be replaced, according to their resistance. And here I would appreciate some help to be sure about what capacitor is defective. All values are measured with the orange power connector plugged (I noted that values can be different with or without that connector plugged). What I'm wondering on :
C2 (yellow) : around 2K ohm
C26 (yellow) : 0 ohm
C5 (orange) : 0 ohm
C6 (yellow) : 0 ohm
C43 (yellow) : 0 ohm
C109 (orange) : 0 ohm
C110 (orange) : 0.6K ohm (with the orange power connector from power supply plugged)
C24 (yellow) : 16 ohm (with the orange power connector from power supply plugged)
C37 (yellow) : 350 ohm
C52 (orange) : changing values
C80 (yellow) : 1.13M ohm
C90 (yellow) : 4.2M ohm
C94 (yellow) : 0 ohm
If someone could check those values on its own machine I would be very grateful. Thanks by advance
