Hi everyone, so basically I am trying to revive my old dekstop pc from 2003 and as i tried to boot it up first time it wouldn't go further than post, but now after a while sitting it went further and then i found out the problem could be the capacitors even though they looked completely fine. I replaced all of the capacitors except for one that i could replace but i haven't done it yet, still i don't think the small 22uF 16v capacitor i causing all this mess. So computer boots up if not tried to boot up many times before, it gets to the windows xp welcome screen i log in and then i am at the desktop and commonly after 10-20seconds it will just restart by it self. The longest it lasted was 3minutes and it was way before i had changed all the capacitors except for one 3300uF. It hasn't been staying that long on ever since. That was just one time. So as far as i remember this motherboard 10years ago was pronounced dead by some computer repair guy. So yeah. If anyone got any clue help would be really appreciated. Btw i tried running pc with my main dekstop's PSU still the same thing so PSU is not the problem.
If anyone was wondering what motherboard i got - Gigabyte GA-7VKMP, BIOS version : f5
