The pins are all OK. As i said, the card is almost brand new and there is no mechanical damage nor rust. Pressing on the little micro chip has no effect, and on inspection it also has no damage on it. But it does seem to heat up just a little. Also bending the card by a certain degree has no effect …

Ok, so i edited it a bit. Added the direction where which pin should go. I think its not too crowded and it can be easily understood 😀 Also, will be glad to make any scheme in illustrator if asked.

Its just like in the pictures i posted a while ago (up in the topic). It only occurs in 2D image, 3D is perfectly clear, but the game crashes and the PC stops responding after a few moments. Didn't quite test that fully yet. Also, when i move the cable a bit the color regains its original values a …

Ive got my hands on an alternative pass-trough cable and same thing occurs. Also I've noticed when i move the cable a bit the colors correct! Seems that the contacts are dirty or something... Ok, I've started quakeGL and it displayed 3DFX logo and everything perfectly, so it must be the pass-trough …

There are no damaged SMD components nor any other type of damage on the card. Its practically new. Even the VGA connectors are shiny and have no rust (from VGA cable). WindowsBooting DesktopShot OriginalImage

Ive asked Vertz about this who told me to make a topic. I have an Voodoo Dragon 2 GPU that has no damage, seems like its new, but when i link it to the 2D card, in this case Matrox Millenium I, the image is more cyan/blue. Now i know the cable is OK because it works with MMI x Diamond Monster 3D, is …

Awesome, thanks for the explanation! 😁 I will not rush into it just yet. I will wait for some cheaper deals to appear. But I'm definitely interested.

As much as it takes. [edit] Thought it was simpler than this, but ive found this: http://www.kupindo.com/Graficke-kartice/10870 … CANOPUS-MVR4400 Seeing that i will need professional hardware, not something simple, im starting to rethink the whole thing 😀

Awesome! Thank you Jay :D It sounds pretty similar drum wise, where the 60XG has some extra notes and is a bit higher in tone. Once the SW1000XG card ive bought a few months ago finally arrives (is still at friends brother in Slovenia) i will also post a recording from it as well, so if any one is …

It stopped responding just like the other one. These hard drives are probably old. One of them clearly suffered heat damage. In my room there is always fresh air from out side, i keep my windows open. I will try them out again pretty soon.

Hmmm, that Gravis sure does look familiar 😀 Is the Obsidian based on the Voodoo 2 chip?
