Cyberdyne, I did this a couple of years ago on my Soyo motherboard too, it works great, thanks. I also did the same thing to other motherboards that have the exact same recharging circuit (with different layout, obviously).
Now, I was putting together a diagram and noticed that after going thorough the resistor, the +5v line also goes to other components, aren't those components expecting the +5v line that has been cut off? I was able to trace that to a couple of tantalum caps and from there to a resistor array, I didn't trace any further and came here to ask since I'm no expert. Any Idea what's going on there? Is this mod disabling something else that I haven't noticed yet?
What's also confusing is that the positive of the 3v battery is also going in that direction.
