I tried different display drivers first and then resorted to replacing the card at the time. At that point I knew the NVIDIA display driver was reporting that it was crashing. Then, I see the caps on this AGP card after opening the burly Dell case. I should have looked for bad caps sooner

I got these pads all the way through and got all the solder out.

http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...301267edit.jpg
Anyone have recommendations for getting the remainder out of these pads ? I think I will find a way, I'm sure there is a more ideal way though

If you have any board with these caps they've probably failed horribly already, lol.
yay swollen caps an nice easy job to replace and good practice for soldering

3am here... I should come back at a more suitable hour and laugh about these things then as I don't think my sister appreciates hearing random outbursts from me
