OT: FIC voltage regulator info..............

[Al Capone]

Hello, again,

As a few of you may remember, a 3DFX Voodoo3 3500 toasted my older FIC
PA-2013 ATX Socket 7 motherboard, and what I need to resurect this peice of
hardware are new voltage regulators. In order to rectify the previous
problem of insufficient voltage to the AGP slot resulting in over-heated and
there-fore fried regulators, I need to re-solder regulator chips onto the
board that will supply ample voltage. From the part time research I've been
doing for the past few months, it would seem that the FIC VA-503+
motherboards do not have this PA-2013 related issue.

If anyone has an FIC VA-503+ motherboard, please look at the board and post
a response with the entire numerical sequence from the voltage regulator
chips. There should be 2 or 3 chips, each one has 3 connectors coming from
the front, with the center one clipped and the 2 outer connections soldered
to the board. The number should look something like "& 9752 (second line
should read like:) NDB6030L" I substituted an & symbol for what looked like
a sideways "S" symbol. Keep in mind that these numbers are from the PA-2013
regulator chips and the VA-503+ numbers may look different (at least I hope
:).

Thanks for any info.

Hi Al. Have you tried alt.comp.periphs.mainboard.fic?
