Fried my Accel Card - Any Hope?

Hi there!



I think i fried one of my accel cards (PCI-X). It's the one seated next to my passive cooled video card. That's why i guess it's a overheat damage, because this card gets quite hot.



This first became noticeable when PT just froze from time to time on the start up window. In these cases, rebooting once ore twice did the trick.



But later on it started to crash DAE in the middle of a session.



In the end, rebooting didn't help neither, or maybe only in one of ten tries.

Now i have removed this card and the system works fine again.



I hope that it's just something simple like a fried capacitor.

Because, when the card is working, DSPs are all up and ok in DigiTest.

And when it doesn't work, the BIOS screen of my hackintosh shows less PCI devices than usual (but some of the card's resources are still there...).



Someone here with similar experience? Or maybe some insider with technical knowledge?



Of course I could get a "new" one in the bay for low (and I did already), but it hurts to dump this card...



Cheers
