Thermal problem? Are the ICs socketed? If so, pull then and re-insert
them. See if that works. Also, how could you tell when it started
working? What all did you do/not do to recognize this?

Be careful with the pot. If it's controlling and onboard regulator you
might be stressing ALL the ICs instead of the tempermental one.

The FIRST step is to take a picture of the card to allow us to see it.
Someone might recognize it immediately and be able to point something
out. Both front and back if possible.
