I tried to see if I could solder it this weekend. I tried a little but it seemed to be a failure. I don’t think i have a fine tipped enough soldering iron or solder. I’m pretty sure i would solder the whole resistor together if I did tried any further. Sorry. Let me know how to proceed.

My issue is with power. I often get the rainbow square in the corner of my screen. I am not sure what is wrong. I am n...
