    Just wondering if this will work, as my 9500M GS has just died after 1 week! :(

    really want one of these cards, if it doesn't work how could i get it to work? by flashing it with bios etc? i've just found a acer vbios for the card online and downloaded it so could i flash it with that if it dont work?

    Thanks

    It will most likely work. Worst case scenario is black screen and blindflash...

    I guess its conceivable that it doesn't boot at all.

    I say its worth a go.
