Inspiron 8200 Display bad

My Inspiron 8200 display has suddenly developed a grid like disfunction, flashing, etc. The video card is an ATI Mobility Radeon 9000.

I have checked the connector to the video card. Does not seem to be a problem there. I have not checked the connection in the display (a little afraid to mess with the display).

I suspect the card is failing.

Does Dell stock replacement cards? I tried to locate a replacement on Dell outlet, but couldn't.

What other options do I have. I believe this model can also use a GForce card. Anybody know what cards the unit can use? Perhaps I can do a Google search for a replacement.

Thanks.
