Excellent! Thanks for the update. I think you had about half of OZZU wanting to see you get this fixed!

Glad to hear you are getting it fixed free of charge.

If I had known this before!!! ... AAGGGHH! I went and bought a cheap refurbished box to replace this Netvista one...and just called IBM and they confirmed they'll change my Mother Board for free (ECA 062 and/or ECA 064 in case anyone needs the ECA #)..... I guess I'll try to find a home for the cheap one I just bought.

Just wanted to let everyone know that my motherboard was just replaced for free today (only two days after I originally called IBM!) and the system is running great now... my system is a NetVista, machine type 6336, model G20. So the ECA covers this model too.

I also found an interesting article about the capacitor problem here-

Thanks for the great forum! I don't know where I'd be troubleshooting this problem if I hadn't come across this thread!!

On my side, I also have good news, Mother Board replaced for free on friday, and now have a stable win2000 Netvista - Type 2254 Model G01,

I'm also being able to return the cheap box I got to replace this one that I thought was dead.
