Was one the original caps (that you replaced) leaking when you pulled it out.

Maybe the board was damaged and you didnt see it.

You can take it to any electronics repair shop (tv or stereo or whatever) and they'll fix it for you. They did for me. Or you can fix it yourself in most cases, even if the traces are corroded, with one of those trace fixing pens. There's usually no damage to anything else.
