VBIOS Bit Rot? Saving a Pair of Matrox AGP Cards
About this video
Two dead Matrox G100 and G200 AGP cards are troubleshot for vBIOS degradation, which the maker links to high failure rates in these series.
Good to know: Any soldering brings burns and fumes, and old solder contains lead. The fault named is firmware degradation.
Why watch it
Bit rot instead of a failed part is the maker's suspicion, which matters before anyone reaches for tools. The maker reports high failure rates for the G100 and G200 series.
