Saga continues. I desolder and exchange for new ones power+AV sockets, its helps, but still shuts down randomly after few minutes, if i wiggle ribbon cable from card to motherboard, sometimes its works again for a bit.
Could be a bad ribbon cable? Seems like pain in the arse to desolder this sucker out :(

The ribbon cable is not fun, but if opening and closing the system a few times it is easy to break the wires off without knowing it.

I have cut the cable down before and made it slightly shorter or as I think a few people here they use old ide style cables to replace it.

That video looks like bad video ram. Especially if Street fighter 2 is used since it is a 20meg game.

if it worked before then there's a good chance that there's some broken Connections in the ribbon cable for the hu card connector.
