Messed up my flash before i backed up. The posted GPU bios on techpowerup 010.075.000.002.027526 seems to cover only a 44kb slave one. I think I need the master bios to get my card working again when I do my blind flashing in DOS. :twitch:

If anyone could send or direct me to both or more importantly the missing 010.075.000.002.027765 bios I think that was what it was, please let me know. Thanks! Especially if you have this card, I need your bios help!

Again, this is for the 3870x2, made by sapphire.

Thanks! You guys are a life saver. :laugh: Though quick question. The bigger bios file is for the master/ atiflash.exe -p 1 core right? I'm going to try both ways, but could save me some time if someone told me as it is ;)

The first file is the first GPU's fle, and vice versa. Don't remember which one's bigger. Just look @ the time created on the file.

Still unable to get screen to post. I used files both ways for GPU's 0 and 1 with a command line of "atiflash.exe -p 0 r680.bin" and "atiflash.exe -p 1 r680(2).bin" and neither seems to be fixing my issue. If I'm going about this the wrong way let me know, and how I would fix it.

Also if anyone has working bio's for this particular reference PCB, regardless of stock or overclocked, please send them to me. I just want the card to start posting.

I am using DOS, and typing in blind using a floppy disc to boot in DOS.

So I'm just asking anyone who was able to post after flashing 3870x2 bios to lend me their experience on how I should go about this.
