i accidentally hit resistor 93 off my snes board (ver 1) while i was desoldering the expansion slot. what should i do? i have no clue where the resistor went so i couldnt just solder it back on.

Solder a 2.2K Ohm resistor in its place according to my schematic

is there any good place where you type in the colors on your resistor and it spits out the ohms. i found one once, but forgot to bookmark it. Like i would need to inputthe colors orage, blue, green gold and it would spit out the rating of the resistor

Sure, as long as they add up to the right value.

when looking at resistor 93 i believe that it is not even needed, because it is part of the expansion thing, and because i removed it, would it be ok to run the board with out R93?

Try it and find out, I'd fix it though.
