Not covered in the warraty but can be fixed if the person has not tried running on the card..

NO HAVE YOU TRIED RUNNING THE CARD AFTER THAT IF NOT THEN DONT DO IT

ya i think so. wen i was installing the tv tuner i broke it but i didnt notice and i turned on the pc. but the monitor didnt turn on since it was connected to the graphics card. wen i saw the capacitor was broken, i removed it and hadnt used it till now

hmmm I think there are 10 -90 chances of getting it back.. but take the card to a service guy (mechanic)and try to replace that capacitor.. IT SHOULD BE THE SAME as your broked one...

it will work i think !!!

;-)Breaking a capacitor makes all the smiles fade away.
I was just telling him that the warranty is out of equation now.
The only way is to get it repaired(If it is possible)
