Disappointed at my Soyo Dragon's lack of support for Thoroughbred CPUs, I did some digging and found some links to a mod that's supposed to allow Tbreds to work on this motherboard. It consists of adding a capacitor to a spot left empty (very easy) and removing a small surface mount capacitor (not so easy). The guide I found originally had a link to a .jpg showing the location of the cap that needs to be removed, but it's long gone. After much searching, I found a chart on the board that has C130, but I'm new at reading this sort of thing. Most of the components are labeled adjacent to where they are, but when there wasn't room they would have a chart. Unfortunately, C130 is one of the latter, and relating this chart to where C130 is actually located is making my brain hurt. Any assistance in locating the C130 capacitor would be appreciated.
