D820- Nvidia Video Chip Starting To Fail Of Course

Dell previously stated that my notebook with the NVS120m was not one of the affected notebooks when the problem was brought to light. I purchased the extended service plan because of this possibility which expired on May 30th last month. The other night, Windows 7 claimed to have a heart attack while I was away from the notebook for awhile. It rebooted and the screen resolution was screwed up. Device Manager showed a problem with the Video hardware. Tried reinstalling the video driver with no luck. When the notebook is booting, weird artifacts are displayed. I go (insert verbage here) and now I know what others experienced. I'm not ready to buy a new PC right now with new models just coming out, so I contacted India through Dell's chat box and after 45 minutes going back and forth, Dell is willing to replace the motherboard afterall. The way she was first responding, I am not sure if she would have. I gave her some history on the Nvidia problem to show I was well aware of the issue within the industry and the fact that Dell and Nvidia did have an agreement for this issue. She immediately offered to send a box for pickup. Has anybody here received a replacement motherboard or know what is being thrown into these notebooks? Are they installing refurbished motherboards with the problem chips still installed? I still have a 2001 Dell 8000 Inspiron that is still ticking away at home with an ATI Rage GPU. Replaced the fans and the hinges and that has been it.

07/06/2012 UPDATE: Got my D820 back. Dell did replace the motherboard with a Nvida GPU at no charge. Updated this post in case someone else has the same situation.
