    I have a Motherboard with electrolytic capacitors who are bulging (One has leaked).
    It still Works and stable but is out of warranty.
    I am looking for a shop who would be willing to replace the capacitors.
    I have some soldering skills But I'd rather leave the job to a pro.
    Before you ask It's a MSI K7D-MasterL (Dual Athlon Mobo with 64 bit 66 mHz PCI slots).
    So I can't get my hands on a replacement that easily.

    Not many people repair MB because the equipment need is difficult to get and you cant get the schematics for the motherboards.

    Normally, only the manufacturer or a nominated repair house will carry out the repair.

    If the caps are the only problem, you could try get the spec of the cap (check casing). order it and get an approved reworker to swap it out for you.
