Biostar 5870 bios

I am currently looking for a biostar 5870 bios. I flashed it with new bios, but did not save the old one. I tried other bios but the clocks aren't the same as them. clocks are 850/1250 and nowhere can i find a stock bios like that.

Im trying to run the card in tr-fire with 5970. It was previuiosly running in crossfire with a 5850. when booting and the card is detected in windows, it freezes.

Those clocks sound exactly like my stock clocks on Asus eah5870 v2, maybe look into using that BIOS?

Hey dudes and dudetts...unfortunately that bios didn't work. Biostar did however contact me to say i need to send them pics of the memory and front and backside of the card to show them what card it is cause there cards need specific bios files. First time i hear of this...but willl keep you all posted.
