Hi,

Have a 8164 (thanx 2 napalm56k) ;D, but unfortunately defektive http://smiliestation.de/smileys/Traurig/17.gif

more precisely there are some missing parts on the front side of the card

Maybe you can help me replacing the defective/missing with new parts.

Here´s a picture of the missing/defective parts.

The picture isn't 100% clear on which components are missing... :-/

@SAT+KABEL - could you post a list of the missing parts also. ;)

No Prob.

Missing Items:

FB67 = I think a inductance of leads http://www.eldis.de/images/produkte/widerstaende/vlh_viking.jpg is missing

The next is a bit difficult.
I don´t know what partNo. is has.

C128 tha´t´s the left cap. you see R104 written in the picture is broken
And the bigger cap. you see in the pictureleft by the R104 in the picture has no No. is missing

The cap.C1465 is missing

The capacitor. C1104 is missing too.

You can easilly find the parts using the picture.

Here you can see a closer view to the parts.

The cap you said has no number IS C128! ::)

So missing parts are... ;)

C128 - capacitor
R104 - resistor
FB67 - SMT inductor (Googled and checked)
Might also be SMT Ferrite Bead

C1465 - capacitor
C1104 - capacitor

It looks as though they were ALL smashed off! :'(

Oh dear! :o

some parts even look corroded, oh no, I hope it can still be repaired, could ask Hank may be he has some idea's.

I've had 'rusty' cards before - as long as all the parts are there, it should work... :P

...maybe? ???

Thanx for your intrest and help.

I contacted Hank and he helped me immediately.

So I´ll try to buy these parts and hope the card works again.

But I found something on the WWW.

Here you can see a 8164

You can see the missing C1104 down to the right on the picture

and the stripe on one of the memory chips.
And guess what  ???

that white stripe thing looks like thermal paste but then wiped out over the chip, by accident maybe, the memory chip placed below it, that one has some of that white stuff too :-/

I hope that this card can be repaired, May The Force Be With Your 8164.

heh it's the same ram used on 3dfx Voodoo 5 6000 AGP 128MB Rev.A1 1500 as Rev.A3 3400 cards and some Rev.A2 2600 cards.
