It might even be the caps in the psu.. sounds like a psu problem anyway.. I would just get a new decent psu....

Sorry didnt post my finding cos i didnt think nobody would be interested =]
But on the other hand i suppose i didnt post my finding because i didnt find anything :/
Not only that but the pc hasnt been 'burning' since
Its all very strange if u ask me...
If a capacitor on your motherboard has failed you might not even notice. I know that you don't overclock, right? In which case you might not be stressing the system enough to create instability as a result of the failure. Still worth checking the caps on the mobo for residue though.
If it was in the PSU, then maybe you would have noticed, but I guess it depends on just what it was that burnt!
