Hi, I need help.
I've probably bricked my gpu.
It occured during a bad flash.
My gpu is not posting, but I can see it on Windows as standard vga, there is a yellow triangle on the icon(I can boot to Windows thanks to my onboard gpu.
The gpu is recognized by Atiflash while in MS-dos.
I always get an error(0FL01) when trying to flash the stock bios on it.
But when typing atiflash -unlockrom, it says rom unlocked(this one works for me, unlike for many others).I heard that I should try to short the two pins(1-8) only when my card is not recognised in Dos, which isn't my case(but I did it anyway with no
result.)Please, is there any way to help me?
Thanks very much for considering my request.

Here is a screenshot of what it looks like when I try to flash it.
Btw, I tried installing the driver in Device Manager and now Windows shows it as ATI Radeon 5700 series with the yellow triangle still on it, even though it's not working.

Quite an old board. You could attempt to use one of these to connect the card to your motherboard's PCI-E x1 if you wanted to try the fix that @patrico posted. Not positive it would work, but it would be 90% cheaper than buying a new (used) one with prices starting at $50 online.

Other than that I've got nothing besides the usual Googling for fixes; it appears there are tons of them.

Flashing the video card BIOS really isn't worth it if you're not 100% confident. ;)

No you did not.
Seriously, if people cant follow simple advice, then how can you be confident with yourself.

it is mentioned a lot of times that your card can get bricked and the only way to fix it if possible is with a 2nd card.

You can try booting up with your onboard. Go to the BIOS and force it to boot from the onboard. Else get help from someone with 2 PCIe slot motherboard.

Else if you want, you can slice your PCIe x1 slot on the right end so you can fit the card there. But this also has certain risks and from your level, i am sure you will mess this up too.

Update:
So I finally got my hands on the pcie x1 riser and tried to plug-in the graphics card, but the mainboard won't detect it.
Freakin' crap, I swear.
Anyway, seems like as a last ressort I will need to test it on a mainboard with two pcie x16 slots.

try your other "working" card with the riser. if it is detected, then your 6750 is bricked to kingdom come.

likely you will need to talk the card to a shop or purchase a test-clip and jumpers and short pin 1 to pin 8 on the bios chip

But the reason the gpu is seen in atiflash is bcuz I tried that 1+8 pins method already, so I see no point doing it all over again.
Btw, I was not still able to test it on a mb with two pcie x16 slots, but here are some screenshots of Gpu-z before and after installing the drivers.As you can see, it is shown as AMD RADEON HD 5700 series(LOL).
P.S: Thanks for your replies so far, I really do appreciate it!

you flashed it with the wrong BIOS. probably that of a 5series. flash it again correctly this time.

a 6750 is a 5750 they are identical cards
and yes a 5750 bios should work on on a 6750 .... an vice versa
provided they use the same type of ram and same power regulator(assuming its a reference board)
incidentally this is the bios you should be using
http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3858#bios
try running the winflash update you have nothing to lose at this stage

op either needs to take his card in and have it flashed with a SPI programer or purchase one
there is nothing more to be done if the pin-short method didn't work(provided he did it correctly which is dubious at best )
