[QUOTE="foxoseven, post: 795478, member: 344001"] My box died last night at 18:31 after it had worked fine if a little quirky for over 2 years. This thread identified the problem within minutes so I opened up the box and sure enough the capacitor C201 had a bulging top. I popped out to the local vendor this morning and bought 2 (so I'm ready for when it blows the new one) at 69p each and replaced it, even with my limited electronics experience the system was up and running again by lunchtime. Thanks to all who posted advice on this thread (my capacitor was 3300uF 10v 105 deg C variant) [/QUOTE]
