I have a X1950 Pro 512mb PCIE card and it wont even show up anymore. No screen or anything. Sypphire RMA wont take it back since I lost the paperwork so i'm SOL there. Was wondering if there was anyway to possibly save this card? I heard a while back about card "baking" where you put it in a oven for an amount of time and it will remelt all the connections. Problem is I have no idea how to go about "baking" card.... Any advice?
 
Well, go into a closed environment, make sure it is air tight, and then smoke away. be careful not to let any of the smoke out of the closed environment. When finished smoking, it will be thoroughly baked.




it's 4/20, time to get me some more pills.
 
I'm not sure if this post is a joke or not. but I would not, not, recommend you bake your video card. If you can't RMA it your probably out of luck. Be sure you have tried everything, take it out and reinstall it. Also have you tried to ask the company you bought it from for a new receipt? New egg for example keeps records of what you bought on the website. it is possible that they could provide you with a solution.
