Reflow the card. Broken solder joint. Possibly on the ram or gpu

I'm just gonna switch to a Quadro4 NVS 200. Should be a much better card.

Try a Quadro 2 with 7.76 drivers. Edit: needs a pci-agp adapter unless you can find a pci version

Try radeon 7500-9200-9250

What's wrong with the Quadro4? Reason I got it is because it's available and affordable. It's a DX7 card. Those cards are hard to find in PCI form. I want it to fit in the case, I don't think that will work with an adapter right?
