Edit1:*If vga card has dual bios switch; is *unable to show video; boot with switch in position #2 *make a backup of the vbios;
Next
Change switch to position #1 and flash the backup vbios

Welcome to TPU, LAW II's advice is always sound in these matters, cant go far wrong from there.
Would you mind filling in your system specs?
This can be done by going to the top of the page and clicking on User CP, and then on the left click on System Specs.

Thanks

Thank you
I knew that it is NON Reference design
and update bios to GHz Edition is not work for my card
what I was looking for is bios from another NON Reference design from Sapphire
I think these two similar to my card design
so, maybe their bios will work on mine
7970 DUAL X OC Boost - 11197-03-40G (950/5700, core boost 1000mhz)
7970 Vapor X - 11197-12-40G (1000/6000, core boost 1050)

and yes it has dual bios switch

i just bought the oc boost and the only reason the card has the boost feature is because the card would not accept the ghz bios.... but it says that the boost feature is identical to the feature used on the ghz bios....

i have the card but no working pc to up it for you.... check wizards bios collection...

good luck...

I already tried these bios
http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/index.php?page=1&architecture=ATI&manufacturer=Sapphire&model=HD+7970&interface=PCI-E&memSize=0
but all of them are old and not working with me

I am looking forward to try your bios in future

I uploaded mine to TPU file hosting-

http://gpuz.techpowerup.com/13/04/27/bgq.png

the data base came up with an error saying it had already been uploaded... they could of at least named it properly...

this is the one you want...015.025.000.099.000000 (113-2104XTHY-OB5) look for device id. mine is 1002 6798.

the file you want is the 4th file from the bottom in the tpu bios list for sapphire hd7970.
