    Cannot identify component on FSP300-60BTV

    I have an FSP300-60BTV power supply out of a nine-year-old VPR Matrix FT-6100 computer. The computer will not power up at all-completely dead. When I opened the power supply I saw this bad component I would like to replace. The photo came from another contributor so the problem may be common. Could someone please tell me what this component is and what value it has so I can replace it? It looks like a capacitor that's burned and mushroomed in the middle. It's soldered into a hole on the PC board lableled: R34.

    Any information would be greatly appreciated. And thank you to the contributor of the photograph.

    That's a resistor.

    I would love to know what the value for it is as well. I also have a rebranded FSP with one of those, and the pink ceramic on the outside seems to have chipped off the metal core.

    The stripes don't correspond to a realistic value, I checked it out.
    "We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."
