ABIT AB-BH6 query..
I have one of these in a lovely beige case and it works fine - which is great - but.. It has some popped resistors behind the USB sockets. Do I need to worry? I only found it when taking it to bits and doing an isopropyl clean - the cremated remains of the resistor just fell off with light brushing.

Other than that - all caps are fine with no bulging anywhere. It happily takes a PIII 500/512/100/2.0V S1 CPU, and completes 3dmark benchmarking in XP without anything seemingly being wrong.

It seems the only problem is the lower USB socket no longer works - so not a biggie. The other one is fine and I have an expansion card in anyway!
