Matrox G200 Bios help Please.....How to repair a damaged pin.txt?

Ok, a few yrs back I bought a Matrox Mystique G200 & upon flashing the bios I somehow chose the wrong bios update & the result was a damaged pin.txt.

I wasnt too concerned at the time because I got a really good deal on a TNT card, so I just tossed the g200 aside.

Now I have a friend who is short of cash & could really use this card, but I'll be darned if I can remember the website with instructions on how to restore a damaged pin.txt on these cards.

Somehow, I also remember needing a number off of a sticker that was on the box, which I no longer have.

Any of you Matrox users out there care to offer any help?

The card works but the display is garbled.

Please, if anyone can help me find info on repairing this cards pin.txt, let me know.

Thanks!
 
Ok, I found the site but I'm not sure how to tell if the card has a damaged pin.txt or if its just the bios that is bad.

If the pin.txt is damaged, will a bios flash further complicate the problem?
Or even kill the bios?

I dont wanna fry this thing!

BTW: For future reference heres the site
