One of mine had that too, (original dvi drive with bad caps underneath) but
it also had other problems because replacing those caps and replacing the
corroded traces with jumper wire didn't fix it.
It lights up at the right times and the dvi detects the door open/close,
but the motor runs too
nimh chemistry is ok for the circuit,
but there is always still the separate issue that the cheapest no-name
manufactured ones are a risk simply because of unknown construction quality
and longevity. So, try to get Yausa or Varta or Panasonic etc, and
generally pay more than $5 per batt not $2
I would check all the caps on the board just to make sure.
Which caps failed? Quite amazing it worked unless they ate through the write
control line.

Based on this thread (and the post by Fugu), can we agree that NiMH
batteries are safe then? I just got a 6 pack of 80mAh NiMH batteries, and
just wanted to make sure before I "outfit" all 6 of my 100/102s...
