Bulging motherboard components. Is my motherboard going bad?

While cleaning my custom-built computer today, I noticed that some components are bulging on my motherboard as on the picture below. I have not seen it last time. Is my motherboard going bad? Is there a fix or should I find an immediate replacement for my motherboard?

Thanks

Unable to boot xp using virtual Machine (box).

Hi there,

Fedora is new to me. I need to run some windows applications. Do I need new kernel headers? I also tried to setup dkms but no success.
