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....

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




click on Display adapter >>> your card




from the photo above
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



Let me know

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??

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
