Hi all...
I have a SB16 card from creative were's there are some issues with it. I just want to know what I should possibly look for, in case of me fixing it with component replacement and such. Before i give it up and deem it unrepairable.
The issues I have, is that when I turn on the computer, the card will sound like some old radio noise, when the radio is not recieving any channel's.
This will fade away within the first 5 minutes. After that, only one channel will play correct, the other will be quite low in volume.
Almost dead that is. At this point, I will not install the card before I have tried something with a soldering iron.
My iniially thoughts about it is, that it could be a capazitor or more, wich are not holding up.
It could be the amplifier wich are dead, and it could be the OPL3 chip wich are dead.
Would be awesome, if I would manage to salvage this from throwing out.
Don't eat stuff off a 15 year old never cleaned cpu cooler.
Those cakes make you sick....
