Anyone with a complete one that can help a fella out?
One component on mine has been knocked off somehow.
I'm assuming its a cap so values would be helpful!

It looks to be a 16v 1000u capacitor

Curses 16v 1000u is my only weakness!

Tho on this ES it looks like a 16v 470u, wich means I'm in buisness again!

Well no dice.
Mobo post beeps but no monitor signal.
Card has been "repaired" by some previous owner tho so I guess its time to redo all that.
Or maby just bin it.
Dunno if its worth spending a lot of time on, even if it seems to be a somewhat rare card.

That's odd, if there was a problem i don't think that it would post. Since it does then i think that it is a good thing. Does the motherboard boot from an internal video card? You can try all the outputs to see if you can get a picture.

I have many faulty video cards that just show a black screen but do not block the system from booting otherwise. That's not really odd.

Anyway, first check both VGA and DVI. Maybe it's only sending a signal to one of the two.

Slight update.
Reflowed what i could reach and cleaned the board thoroughly, previous owner left tons of flux.
And I now have a picture, well sort of:
