Help identifying a 5 band resistor

[BobK]

You do have a point there. If this was indeed a fusable resistor, upping the power rating is not a good idea.

I have seen many fuse resistors blow, we used to use them as indicators. The burnt dot does look like what I used to see all the time. Also a white 5th band indicates a fuse type for some manufacturers.

That's good information there Adam!

I Googled "white band means fusible" and others have mentioned it as well. One of them mentioned Panasonic and Yageo. Resistor colour codes should probably mention this!

I think the appropriate replacement would be a 0.5W fusible resistor such as http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/NFR25H0002208JR500/PPC2.2BCT-ND/614254

Thanks for the information

Update:

I ordered a 2.2 ohm fusable resistor and it came in this morning, after taking apart the power supply further I noticed a burnt patch on the plactic backing seperating the pcb and the casing. There also appears to be a burnt out component which probably caused the burn on the plastic (r127 on pcb). I still went ahead and soldered in the new resistor and tested the unit.

Upon powering up there was another pop and the power supply didn't start. I read somewhere online that if a resistor pops that it is most likely a bigger problem then just a new resistor, perhaps that was the case.

Thanks for you help, a new power supply it is.

It's a shame that did not work out.... Luckily new PSU are fairly cheap for computers. Thanks for checking back in!
