NIC doesn't help.

If it is a resistor to your MB, the machine is probably Over Clocking and
cannot handle it, to much power to the CPU.

Does the BIOS in you Compter show you voltages and/or temperature scores?

I would get another MB, probably is cheaper than to get someone to repair
it.

But then it might not be MB, do you have another Power Supply you can try,
if that fails I would suggest a new MB.

These are only suggestions.
