Vostro 1400 GPU problem

Hello There,

 

My Dell  Vostro 1400 GPU Crashed today,  when the system post the screen has vertical line (see picture attached).

I was searching to see what was the problem, and ended with that my GPU is corrupted.

I found this article(below) stating that Dell gave extended warranty on specific systems with Nvidia GPU, and mine is one of them (vostro 1400), but I am out of warranty and cannot send them email or chat with them, and I don't want to spend $49 for the call.

I bought my laptop in October 2007.

any help how to contact the support team to get this problem fixed would be appreciated.
