To all SE/30 owners with unexplinable problems, I strongly suggest you read through this thread and search for other threads on "capacitor replacement" on this site.
Seriously, we need to consolidate this information into one big thread and make it a sticky. While replacing the caps won't solve every SE/30 problem, the fact remains that almost all SE/30's now need to have this work done on them because some or all of the SMD capacitors on the logic board have leaked, whether you can physically see the leakage or not. Some SE/30's have serious problems like SimasiMac while others merely crash/lockup now and then and the owner simply doesn't know why. Replacing the caps will solve many problems and help you troubleshoot other problems by eliminating leaking capacitors as a variable in the troubleshooting process.
