That sounds like a 100microfarad, 6 volt electrolytic capacitor.
But I could be mistaken. Let another on the list confirm that.

Yes, thanks ... looks like one of these:

Just broke off completely ... left one post on the mobo, 1/8 x 1/16
strip of metal with 2 holes folds onto a post into the mobo.
Capacitors only have one post?
Guess someone can replace if fairly easy? Any suggestions? One-man
computer repair shop?
Or buy another mobo for around $45? This one is a replacement ... have
the other with this capacitor in place ...
I believe its labeled "C983" on the mobo ... looks like a solder point
has broken.
(want to go the fixit route) ...
