It's really unhelpful that you are sending your interpretation of the
facts rather than facts (e.g. versions of your software and hardware,
program output).

Firmware images normally have reasonable defaults that would at least
allow minimal functionality to flash firmware again.

If it's just PDA, then the card should be OK.  Use the DOS flash utility -
it allows you to program PDA among other things.  If you have MAC 3842 or
better, you should be able to set genesis mode by the "-3842" argument,
and that can fix any damade to the card.  The utility can be found here:

all links).
