Hi,

Thanks for the extra info.. but... I still need to find out where R428 and
R429 is somewhere on the NMS8250 motherboard. I've removed the casing and
the drives bay but couldn't see anything there.. Perhaps it's under the
print that has all output connectors on it but I don't want to risk removing
it unless I know that they are actually there.. So anybody ?
