Hi! On what basis did you determine capacitors capacities 1206 C3, C4, C17, C35, C37, C43, C45 on the 5V line? I measured the capacities and received divergent results C3 = 3147nF C4 = 3147nF C17 = 3200nF C35 = 3146nF C37 = 3117nF C43 = 3166nF C45 = 3147nF I suspect that a new capacitor with a …

Measure the resistance on the 5V line as I drew on the example, you can measure in this place or on any capacitor C42, C40, C43, C45, C37, C17, C3, C4 .... as you find it more convenient. Set the meter to 200k ohm range and measure. The correct measurement is to look that the resistance will …

Diamond 3D II looks like the capacitors on the 5V line want to charge and one of them had a short circuit (or something else on the board) and immediately discharged them. It is strange that after starting the computer is V = 5V without any drop. On each capacitor on the 5V line I measure only 12ohm …

Today I measured the paths between the FBI 500-0009-01 and the PCI slot as well as the FBI and GENDAC ICS5342 - I found no damage. I replaced GENDAC and (QS5244 diamond) (74AC244 ICUVGA-GW803) at the same time. Voodoo ICUVGA-GW803 works ok, starts the game. Diamond 3D II - FBI could not recognize …

The conversion of 500-0009-01 processors between Voodoo has changed nothing. Diamond 3D II shows the same fault when starting "_GlideInitEnvironment ..." ICUVGA-GW803 is working properly, you can start the game Need For Speed III, there is a normal image, now it displays vertical stripes, 500-0009- …

feipoa ready for the test

I will replace FBI 500-0009-01 systems with Voodoo Diamond 3D II and ICUVGA-GW803 cards for the test. Diamond 3D II has already soldered the new FBI 500-0009-01 I wrote about it in my first post, but I will exchange it and see what will happen ... There is one more thing that puzzles me, TMU0 and …

I wonder where the fill device info data is stored and why it cannot be read in Diamond II. I swapped the QS5244 chip with 74AC244 between Voodoo. Diamond does not work, ICUVGA-GW803 plays ok. NFS3 .. The problem probably lies in the connection 500-0009-01 or its circuit ... I soldered all smd …

for testing I took the second Voodoo 2 with ICUVGA-GW803 designations which only had mechanically damaged texture mapping processors TMU0 TMU1 500-0010-01. I desoldered the remaining elements to get the same card as Diamond II. Voodoo ICUVGA-GW803 is correctly detected by win98 and does not cause _ …

Welcome friends I will share with you my observations and what I did. The topic of repair Voodoo 2 Diamond 3D II has been raised many times in various forums around the world, however, without a victory. This indicates a high vulnerability to damage to Diamond 3D II cards. Voodoo Diamond 3D II rev B …
