If you are referring to a 10K ohm nominal (25 degree C) thermistor, then
it won't hurt anything to connect it. I used to use a Radio Shack 271-110a
on my P2B-S, and it worked fine. This part is no longer sold by RS.
Chances are TRPWR1 is the same thing.
From an old post in groups.google.com
RS part# 271-110A
10k +- 1% @ 25 deg C.
Temperature degress C versus resistance in K ohms
-50c = 329.2k +35c = 6.941k
-45c = 247.5k +40c = 5.862k
-40c = 188.4k +45c = 4.912k
-35c = 144.0k +50c = 4.161k
-30c = 111.3k +55c = 3.567k
-25c = 86.39k +60c = 3.021k
-20c = 67.74k +65c = 2.589k
-15c = 53.39k +70c = 2.229k
-10c = 42.25k +75c = 1.924k
-5c = 33.89k +80c = 1.669k
0c = 27.28k +85c = 1.451k
+ 5c = 22.05k +90c = 1.366k
+10c = 17.96k +95c = 1.108k
+15c = 14.68k +100c = .9735k
+20c = 12.09k +105c = .8575k
+25 c= 10.0k +110c = .7579k
+30c = 8.313k
Take an ohmmeter and verify the device reads 10Kohms. Reverse the leads
on the meter - the device should read the same, no matter which way it
is connected to the meter.
I don't recommend plunging it in boiling water, if that was what you
were thinking of doing :-)
If Asus probe doesn't read it properly, try motherboard monitor (MBM5)
