ASUS EAH 5570 Silent bad bios flash
 
I flashed a 4650 bios (just to try it) in my 5570.. My PC can start only when my 5570 is removed.. So I need help to bring my GPU back to life.... :banghead:

Hi

I tell you what you do, but I am not sure. anyway it's work for me


first step you need to DISABLE your graphic card from Safe mode


1- Go to Safe mode . Start >> Device management

Go To Driver >>> DISABLE >> Reboot your PC

Than Your PC will Reboot on normal mod. now you can Flashing your card again with the original BIOS

I hope you have backup

Thanks for replying.. The problem is that my PC can`t even start when the GPU is inserted.. I`ll try again later.. :toast:

Yes.. I tried again now, but nothing..

I just saw (in the forum) that some people recovered their GPU by soldering pin 1 and pin 8 on the bios chip.. But I don`t know where the bios chip is exactly in my card.. Can anyone help me??

Mohammed Feb 7, 2012 03:50 PM

Can you upload photo

big photo may help to give idea

alonan100 Feb 8, 2012 06:58 PM

I think I found it.. There is a chip called PM25LV512 (I can hardly read it)

follow the pdf;) good luck:)
If your sodering skills arn't that great you could use the "bubble gum" trick on the pins

alonan100 Feb 9, 2012 11:35 AM

Thanks very much.. I`ll try later..

Um. That... that's just plain dumb. You win the FAIL award of the year.

alonan100 Feb 10, 2012 05:06 PM

OMG, I got it to work.. Should I remove the wire before flashing the bios??

alonan100 Feb 10, 2012 06:37 PM

The problem is solved.. Thanks for your help..

Mohammed Feb 10, 2012 06:53 PM

What did you do

alonan100 Feb 10, 2012 07:24 PM

I used a small wire to connect pins 1 and 8.. I placed my 5570 in the PCI-E slot and the PC turned on this time.. I had prepared a usb flash drive to flash the original bios. The card got detected by atiflash. Then I cut the wire and flashed the bios

Frick Feb 10, 2012 08:00 PM

Why did you think it would work in the first place?

LDNL Feb 10, 2012 08:19 PM

I just had to put this for my first sig
