I have a spare EPOX 8K3A+ that I can sell you for testing.  It has been known to be an extremely compatible and solid board for our beloved V56K's.  Or depedning on your location I should just send it to you for testing...

I've tested it in four boards compatible with the Voodoo5 6000, as recommended models, including one that used to work with it.  In the past, boards that were not compatible would not even boot.  Each of these boards boots and runs Windows fine, but the system hangs with a 3D application.

Signs are that the card has a memory problem and needs repair.

Thank you for your kind offer

In that case best of luck to you and god speed.  I know what it is like to have a v6k that has issues and going to extreme lengths to get it back to a functional state. I had a 2600A2 that needed some fixing and the hint chip needed to be replaced to bring it back to life.
