So my Nuforce Icon started behaving weirdly.  It froze Media Monkey.  I turned it off and then back on again.  Then the protection circuit started to kick on constantly.  Finally a "POP" and some smoke started to pour out of the chassis.  I unplugged the whole thing and opened it up and found that the resistor in position R-90 is fried.  I can't make out the color stripes any more.  I bought it in 08 so it's not under warranty anymore.  Nuforce wants $75 for a new board to be shipped my way. 
 
I'd love to just try and replace that resistor and see what happens before I have to pay for another board.  Can anyone who has one from that era look at their Icon board and tell me the colors of the resistor in position R-90?
 
Thanks so much.
Drew
