In this video I'm going to be looking at my Tseng Labs video card from 1983 that was kindly (?) donated to me by a subscriber in a hopeless attempt for me saving it.
In this video(s) I will attempt to fix it, starting by cleaning it, changing caps, checking traces and replace chips where needed. Spoiler alert : it is not fixed by the end of the video but it should make for an interesting repair series .... lets try and learn something together !
I've posted some more detailed pictures here :

And also have a vogons / vcfed forum post :

- vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=72378
Wish me luck ... cause I'm going to need it.
