    [SOLVED]820-00164 power issue

    on pin 1 of r7310 resistance to GND was 14.4ohms and dropped to 11.3ohm after about 5min. i did remove r7310 and r7320 to see which side the short to ground was on. and its on pin1 of r7310 and pin 2 of r7320. I'm thinking short on cpu but really it could be anything on this line? i think.
