I am not familiar with the CAPS. What should I look for to see if they
are "pregnant"? Are they on the power supply?

They are talking about electrolytic capacitors, small cylinders, usually
with a stripe with a bunch of pluses down one side. There are other types,
but those are seldom any problem.



Thanks for all the tips everyone. The capacitors all look good. No swelling
at the top and the system seems to be working fine. I think it was mostly
the fact that two fans became dislodged from the back of the box and were
not functioning. Fortunately, I had the shutdown rather than the burnout.

Thanks Again,

Bob
