*CHECK THE PINNED COMMENT FOR MORE DETAILS DISCOVERED AFTER THIS VIDEO WAS MADE* This is part 2 of me trying to revive a Voodoo 2 that was victim of a faulty power supply. In the first video, we removed all 24 memory chips and resolved a short to the 5v power line. Today, we will try the card in a system and see if we can get any sign of life from it! Maybe we will even be able to render some 3Dfx games in Glide!
