Islands Graphics Card Repair
Islands has no branch. Repairs take place at Room 1209, Dali Plaza, Shek Mun, Sha Tin. Tung Chung can reach Shek Mun the same day. The outlying islands only accept SF Express; after repair the card is sent back.
The Islands have no branch. Citygate Outlets, Caribbean Coast, The Visionary, Century Link and Ying Tung Estate are all at Tung Chung Station. Tung Chung line to Nam Cheong, change to the Tuen Ma line, to Shek Mun in about 35 to 40 minutes; the airport and Tung Chung residences can hand in a card the same day. Discovery Bay requires a ferry or bus to Tung Chung first.
Cheung Chau, Lamma Island, Peng Chau and Mui Wo are limited by ferry schedules; a same-day round trip to Shek Mun is not practical. These places only arrange SF Express: send the card to Room 1209, Dali Plaza, Shek Mun, Sha Tin, and it is sent back to the pier or your address after repair. Seaside units suffer heavy dampness, so gold fingers and HDMI oxidise easily.

Islands Common Card Problems
Heavy seaside dampness: in Tung Chung, Discovery Bay and Cheung Chau, gold fingers and HDMI oxidise, causing intermittent no-display.
Airport and Tung Chung shift machines: if it is only the graphics card, remove and send the card, or travel the same day via Nam Cheong. The whole machine does not need to cross the harbour; Citygate Outlets does not accept cards.
Cheung Chau, Lamma, Peng Chau and Mui Wo: SF Express only. Ferry schedules do not line up with the shop's 11:00–20:00 hours.
Continuing to power on with screen artifacts while on the islands: VRAM damage spreads. Stop using it first, then send it to Shek Mun.
