That, my friend, would the the capacitors leaking on the board. The only option you have is to replace the caps on the board. either that, as a short-term is to wash the gunk from the old caps off the board, would be to put the board in a dishwasher.

---Uuups...by that do you mean this and this? Or this has got just nothing to do?

Anyway the Classic starts up ok within a few power-on retries. This last picture was taken after the other inside pics, once reassembled....

Thanks for a quick reply....
