The resistor in question is extreeeeeemely tiny. I doubt you could find probes for your multimeter small enough, let alone install a replacement. I'm not sure about where the ADB circuitry is located physically on your mobo, but on my 7200s, 7300, 7500 and 7600 all have them located right next to the ADB connector, so I'd guess it's a safe bet to assume that it'd be just as close on your Quads. When I say these resistors are small, it's dang-near impossible to read the color coding on them even under fairly serious magnification. Given their small size, I doubt they'd give off any discernable odor if they burned out. Allen ----- -- Quadlist is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
