What have I done???

My computer is not even booting to bios.
The reason i believe is because yesterday I tried to upgrade my nvidia geforce4 4200 go video bios with r71801.exe unsucccessfully.(r71801.exe stopped responding and I had to shut it down with task manager) So I presume I corrupted the video card's bios. I restarted my computer and the computer will not even show the dell logo. So I can't go into bios or anything. Anyway can I reinstall or fix the video bios for my graphics card.
Inspiron 8500.

Any input would be greatly appreciated...

    Depends - if it will boot to a floppy you could make it autoexec into the video bios update and hopefully memorize the keystrokes to get it going.

    EVERYONE - NEVER ABORT OUT OF A BIOS UPGRADE OF ANY KIND!!!
