I thought I was effed for sure. It worked. One of the drivers that wasnt there last night was the right one!

The part I didnt tell you is that I have these in crossfire and I had screwed up both of them! w1zzard, you really saved me. Thanks to EVERYONE that replied and so quickly too! OCN aint got nothing on your guys when it comes to tech support. Guess I can cancel my XFX ticket.

Man my wife was going to kill me when she found out I bricked 700 dollars worth of brand new electronics.

I feel like I need a drink now lol but its only 9:30. Both are working now, I guess I ought to run 3dmark just to be sure its REALLY working. I am just glad to know they arent paperweights.

One thing I noticed was that when the wrong bios was flashed, the PCB would get very hot. I refrained from running it longer than I needed while trying to fix it but I have no doubts that damage would have occured if I left it on.
