I recently took my IIsi out of the closet and attempted to power it on. Pressing the power button in the back produces a faint buzzing sound, and the power supply shuts off after about 1 second. I do see the power LED light up though it's dim, and the fan does spin.

So I take it the capacitors on the power supply bit the dust, but I don't see any bulging out. I don't see anything wrong with the motherboard, but that doesn't mean it's not the problem.

I'm wondering if someone here already replaced caps on a IIsi and whether they have a purchase list (or schematic) to save some time before I take it apart and figure out what the caps are and order new ones.

(Already replaced the 3.6V half AA battery, that wasn't it.)
