The 5 volt regulator usually controls the other voltages. The charring of the
contacts shows that too much current was pulled through them. I would
suspect the voltage req on the mobo for the CPU or the caps. How old is the
mobo? There was a rash of bad caps about 2(?) years ago.
I'm not sure how long we've had this mobo. The BIOS dates are all from
2002. DFI AD73 RAID. My father has a DFI AD73 Pro which hasn't had a
problem.
I did have some problems with two PowMax PSUs in the past.
