You are unlikely to damage the card unless you disconnect the motor with current flowing in the motor. The 7I39 is pretty tough. Only if you can verify that you have PWM in on all 3 channels and no PWM out would I suspect the 7I39 > > -- > Viesturs > > If you can't fix it, you don't own it. > http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
