Thanks Jon. Here is a badly focused picture of the suspect components: http://www.beyondthepale.ie/cctech/p1010198.jpg
WOW, I don't know what those are! They look like big ceramic caps to me, but if they don't have any polarity marking, then they can't be Tantalum. Big multilayer ceramics are prone to cracking due to board flexing, and that can cause catastrophic failure, too.
