Is it out of ALL warranties, you usually have a manufacturers aswell as extended retailers warranty. Might be worth a check to see if your covered by the store you boguht it from

It could be as simple as a stray hair or something shorted the card out, it doesnt have to realte directly to something you physically did to the card.

Its in perfect physical condition, but a bit dusty... I will dust it with something non-static and see if it helps.

Hiya,
i contacted Gigabyte and they came back with this very useful info that could help people in a similar situation . . . .
Hi,
" manufacture warranty "
Goods released from the manufacturer before Jan 2003, 2 years "manufacture warranty" apply; after Jan 2003, 3 years "manufacture warranty" apply.
Serial number determines the " manufacture warranty ", for instance if the current week is week 17 year 2005, the serial number shows before 1st Jan year 2003, it will be out of warranty, we can only take number shows after 1st Jan ( inclusive ) year 2003. e.g: SN0301xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ( week 1 year 2003)
Warranty and RMA issues are normally arranged by your supplier.(No charge is added by Gigabyte) The warrenty terms are dependent on your sale of contract and is what ever your supplier sold you.
