    Hi guys,
    I have an old M570tu that I'm trying to bring back to life, the gtx 9800m died and bought a quadro fx 2700m on ebay just so i can use this machine. Now, after replacing the card the laptop does not boot, i get the black screen and the power button light is on.
    I cannot contact the reseller since its long out business, should i try to blind flash it? Also where can i find a compatible bios?
    Thanks

    Thanks MrDJ for the quick reply,
    I already baked the 9800mgtx twice, first time it worked for 2 months, second time did not work.
    I really dont wont to throw it to the garbage, it has a nice 17" 1080p display and a powerful processor: qx9300.
    I will keep searching for solutions.
    Thanks
