Very few places actually do repairs on video cards that I'm aware of. If you have some sort of warranty with the card you may be able to RMA it for a replacement.

well see the thing is i bought on ebay, which worked when i put in my system. but stupid me i tried to flash the bios and it got all messed up. when i tried to flash it back, it didnt work for some odd reason. i even backed up the one that was on the card and it didnt work. so i said forget ill just try too get it repaired, i tried many thing to get it too work....

I'm afraid that if you buggered up the card's firmware, you may be SOL.

what do u mean by "you may be SOL."

SOL = s**t outta luck

and I seriously doubt ATi would repair a card that they didn't build.

tsk tsk tsk...

ANYWAY

It's probably a very simple problem to fix if you know how to, but a flashed bios gone wrong is a pain in the arse. Because the actual hardware of the card is 100% fine.

Dunno what to say. Hope you can figure it out eventually.
