I think I may have bricked 2 HD7870's whilst trying to get them to work in crossfire mode...
Changed vbios's etc.. now neither will boot, tried to go back to the original bios on one of the cards but it still wont work..have tried various bios's and cant get anything to work.

Please Help!

1st card is a Powercolour HD7870 OC 2GB GDDR5 (PITCAIRN) - the original bios is on the bios collection page..
2nd card is a VTX3D HD7870 Ghz edition 2GB GDDR5 (PITCAIRN) - I cannot find the original bios anywhere...all the VTX3D bios's that I've found so far are tahiti ones or overlcocked x-edition versions.
The original bios name that was installed on the card had the name of TCAIRN A1 XT GDDR5 64MX32 2GB 150E/150M 1.23 - I tried and ATI bios on this card as the name was the closest I could find , but it still doesnt work...

I'm running from the mobo gfx chip at the moment, both cards are detected in windows and are seen in gpu-z, however the memory size is incorrect with missing info for both cards:

This is the current output from atiflash for both cards:

Any help you can provide that would let me recover these cards would be very appreciated.
I'm pretty much at the point of giving up :(
 
Update - found correct vbios's and got both cards working and stable individually, but when crossfire was enabled games would either work for 10-15 minutes then crash out or not work at all...
So time to sell both cards and buy a new one...
 
you probably need to uninstall the drivers run cc cleaner then reinstall drivers in order to get them to run stable in crossfire

up grading is also a good plan
 
Use DDU to clean your drivers out and reinstall after rebooting into windows open ccc and see if it has automatically enabled crossfire for you if not then enable it, also what games are you running that keep crashing maybe check for patches if it's a known issue
