Very well, i went over the cliff and bought the system (tough at a lower price 8-) )

I opened the system, and looked pretty close to the motherboard caps, and to my sight, there is no apparent leakage. I have some photos right here:

Other thing that i checked was the memory, and IMO it looks pretty cheap, with no text in the chips:

I was thinking in washing the mobo, to see what happens; for me, there is no apparent problem with the caps, but anyway I'm no expert, so I would like a little advice. Probably I'll wash the mono and see what happens.

Any ideas?

Thanks and regards

The strange thing is that sometimes, the mac starts with a very low bright screen (same pattern, but just noticeable):
