Although Hank Semenec is the specialist for V5 6000, i'm sure he can also repair a voodoo5 5500 card. At least he can just try. The problem is, as you know, he has very little time, and seldom online, it is possible to reach him through Amigamerlin. Just send them both an e mail.

You can also try to contact the "V-Man ", he should also have some contacts, as he wanted to repair his Voodo5 5000 AGP 4x card, when he wanted to sell it through ebay.

Good Luck dude.. Sad
