    DM500C - Help in Identifying a component

    Hi there
    I've just recieved my replacement DM500C from DVB Monkey - only to find some bits rattling around inside, and the box not working.
    When I opened it up I've found that one of the components on the main board has broken.
    I'm not sure what the part is, but there are 2 circular components with the number 330 stamped on them....one of them has broken.
    If anyone can identify the part, i would be really grateful, as i dont want to return this one back to DVB Monkey and have to wait another 5 months for a replacement.
    I'll try and order the part and fit it myself

    many thanks in advance

              DM500C - what component

              Here you go mate - pic should be attached
              if you can help in any way, I'd really appreciate it.
              The box has power and comes up with the digital kaos logo etc, but then freezes.
              I'm hoping that the broken part is casing the problem

              cheers

                  Don't know if you've got your answer but that looks like an Inductor and I'm guessing that the 330 represents 330mH as a value.

                      if you want to check that the inductor is working put a multimeter on resistance and measure a resistance of about 3-4 ohms max. measure across the silver solder pads of each if the resistance is more than that then you will need to get replacements maybe maplin if ur lucky or farnell or radionics will be able to sort you out.
