Ok, I have a video card here its a GF2 and it is damaged. The damage is minor, but Im curious with all the peeps around here if anyone would know if it could be repaired?

I personally have no clue to where even to start or if it would even be possible. Next to the GPU heatsink there is a small mark on the tracings. That is what has been damaged.

Anyone?

It doesn't work, correct? If it's just the traces that are damaged, you should be able to repair it (think bridging the L1 on an athlon). I might be totally wrong, but im pretty sure that's what you can do.

YAY, i found someone else with the same problem (except it happened to their motherboard), and how they fixed it. I think i was pretty correct in what i said.
