Please could anyone help me out? I accidently damaged a Surface mount resistor from the back of my EVGA 8800 GTX card. I have tried all the technical support people from EVGA but they point blank refuse to help me out. All I want to know is the value of this resistor so that I can have it replaced. If there is anyone out there with a EVGA 8800 GTX card and a multimeter to measure the component, could you please drop me a email at steve.cocker7@ntlworld.com an I will send you a photo of the back of the PCB where the component is missing.

The card is also out of warranty but seems such a waste of money to buy another for the sake of a SM resistor!

Thanks very much

Steve

Thanks very much for your offer, I really appreciate it. I ended up buying another one second hand on eBay for £96, so no too bad. The resistor value was 18K so I took it to repair shop and the guy soldered one on for £5
The card now works a treat! although I now have 2, I will probably put them in SLi mode now.

Once again thanks very much for your offer.
