Common problems in Arcade VGA Cards - Can they be fixed?
« on: January 23, 2009, 07:30:51 pm »
When an Arcade VGA Card randomly dies - what are the most common causes? And can they be fixed? And what does it entail and how easy is it?

Appreciate any feedback on this... Cheers! :)

I'd bet the same issues for any video card, generally.
