Na there fees are criminal. You might as well dump the card on ebay selling as is condition unknown and buy you self a better card. :/

I thought he was overclocking it so he could play those games of his. Any way if it fails to post no matter what you do then it most likely won't run at all. I would look for a 4850 or a 9800gt /gts250 that isn't over priced.
