X1900 just died :(

[sargatanas]

I know this probably isn't worth making a thread of, but I am mourning the loss of my X1900 master card, no idea what happened to it, just got a black and white checkered screen while benching my cpu. Never came back again.

Right now i am running at 800x600x16bit on a Cirrus Logic 5446 1MB PCI card.

If it isn't still under warranty it's a good excuse to upgrade to a X2900Pro, out later this week.

Still sucks though

I got it 2nd hand not 2 months ago. So no warranty

Not to worry, minesweeper will still play ok.

I always get suprised by hearing about peoples graphics cards dieing. The only one I've had go funny was a Radeon 9550 with artifacts on boot, but that was after years of use and it self corrected!

i found out a capacitor came off and another bit(have no idea how, I wasnt in the case at the time), So I'm looking for soemone to solder them back on for me.
