Hello
Does anyone know what these strange square ceramic capacitors are? They fall apart just by looking at them and have no markings except the colors on the top.
They just look like ordinary radial ceramic capacitors with a wide lead spacing to me.

Wow ! Lots of corrosion.
Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun
So no one knows what the capacitance of these capacitors maight be?
Try to measure them using an multimeter. Or just yolo it and put in like 1uF ones ig (or smaller, only as an temporary fix).
Even the cheapest MM's have an option to measure capacitance.
You say you've got me outnumbered
I say you've evened the odds
You doubt the strength I hold within
Just one bounce back is all I need to win!
Those tantulums could also be like explodey Star Trek consoles
