phase 5 blizzard iv 1230 64 mb not booting up

[bitman]

I recently bought a similar card as defect. The problem with the card was the Crystal Oscilator (the square silver component). First check if it's seated correct (it's not soldered to the PCB) - otherwise try a new crystal which I did, and it solved the problem.

in my attempt to solder on another crystal, i gaveup and just resoldered the crystal allready installed, now working.

now attempting to install os 3.9.

happy days.

So it was the Crystal as suggested - seems to be a "common" problem on old Blizzards
