I just feel it's a nice little board, and it seems a waste to toss it just yet if it's fixable. The videos I've found are pretty similar; the motherboards are a little different and thus so is the fix. My board has a header to which I could solder something. The insulation tubes would probably be a good safety measure. I just don't keep any discrete parts around, hence I'm asking around for some. Thanks! I'll send you my address.

Greetings Kevin, I have a very good assortment of resistors, "Through Hole" I assume is what they ask for, you will need some tiny insulation tubes to keep it from shorting out, I can mail all of this to you, (resistors are about 2 cents so no worries, I think I can afford the postage also, where would I send it to? you can reply directly if  address is an issue in the group..

Hi all,

I have a SuperMicro A1SRI-2758F motherboard which appears to have now died. I've read that it's because of a bug in the Intel Atom C2000-series chips of a certain vintage.

I've also read that there is a DIY fix involving a bit of soldering and a 220 ohm resistor. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPKFC2HBtvA. Can anyone provide the resistor? And maybe some soldering help? :-) I do have a soldering iron, but I haven't used it for ages.

Kevin
