hp compaq d530 sff mobo repair?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
so I recently got a hp compaq d530 sff striped of parts by me to my other machine like ram and hdd, the dvd was broken.

B4 stripping:
the motherboard wont post
not even a beep code thing, alot of the capacitors look like they were leaking and 2 were so bad the tops of em had rust coming out
I was wondering if I could repair this board (so I could have a little computer in my bedroom) by replacing the caps looks like ittle be about $13 to repair it if I get the word it will work also every thing went up but the mobo post, psu,light,fans,hdd

so is it repairable?

Plans:
repair mobo
cpu in with its cooler it came with(not the compaq's stock cooler)
new heatsink mounting bracket(1-4 latch was broken)
agp extension cable
pci extension cable
put in my geforce 8800 gs
wifi card it came with
dvd none
hdd none
more airflow lower heat^
flash drive with linux os
remove the riser board
think thats it biggrin.gif

edit:
buy 4x1gb ddr $10 ish
2x1gb will go in my server for a total of 3gb(has 1gb and 512mb)
1x512mb from server to compaq
2x1gb to compaq for 2560mb total

Thanks,
