HD6870 black screen after flash bios

Fiox89 · Jan 17, 2013, 02:19 PM

Hi all

I'm new here

I have a problem, i have a Sapphire HD6870 1GB here, it came to me with bad bios flash.

Now, i have back flash with ALL sapphire bios HD6870 in the techpower database...

Code:

atiflash -i

Code:

atiflash -f -p 1 name_bios.rom

the process ends successfully, i reboot with HD6870 as primary card and...black screen!!!

how i can fix this?? I tried to short-circuit pin 3-8 in the chipset of bios (Pm25LV010) and flash new bios...but the result is the same... where I'm wrong??

vga detail--> PN: 288-1E177-100SA - SKU: 11179-00

p.s. i have find this bios in Sapphire site --> http://www.sapphiretech.com/presenta...006&lid=1&os=6 I can flash this bios? this is only 64kb

Card maybe done for. I would contact sapphire and see if you can get an original bios.

Fiox89 · Feb 18, 2013, 01:07 PM

The original bios is linked from sapphire's site. Read the rest of the discussion.

gdallsk · Feb 18, 2013, 01:19 PM

have you made a backup of your original bios before you flashed?

Fiox89 · Feb 18, 2013, 01:22 PM

negative, no backup (the card was not originally mine)
