I am writing this from a phone because I made my PC not functional... It is my bad but I am here to seek for help.
I have R9 270 2G Sapphire Dual-X version and I wanted to flash it to 270x Bios. I was on Windows 10 and I used AtiWinFlash and Custom Bios made specifically for this GPU.
Program succeed and it rebooted. Reboot took much longer and the screen was whole time black (which made me think I bricked my GPU) but after like about 2 minutes windows 10 welcome screen just popped out and sent me to desktop. I wasn’t familiar to GPU flashing and I thought it might be normal for such things. I kept using my “new” graphic card, I tested it and etc. It worked without problems, but everytime I restarted PC it always took lot longer and without any windows booting animation.
As I had really bad experience on win10 with my really old Hard Disk I decided to go back to Windows7 just 1 day after BIOS flash.
I made bootable stick and when I wanted to enter BIOS i realized I couldn’t because screen was whole time black and unusable. I realized if I wanted to enter BIOS blindly PC would just freeze.. It was weird. I sticked my GPU out and kept using integrated graphic to reinstall windows. I have i5 2500 if it matters. I installed Windows real quick and when I booted in desktop for the first time, I didn’t install any driver or anything, I just turned it off and plugged mu gpu right back in. Windows would boot but my GPU couldn’t send signal to monitor, monitor didn’t even get any signals from GPU. Coolers were spinning but GPU was acting dead. I sticked GPU out again and set that default graphic output in bios is my integrated gpu. I sticked my r9 270 back in and succesfuly booted into windows with dedicated gpu spinning. Unluckily, nor any software or device manager recognized my r9 270.
Then I got the dumbiest idea of the day, I went in BIOS again and tried disabling integrated gpu completely. It was to try if GPU would start then, it wouldn’t. And now I am stuck without Dedicated and integrated GPU.
Are there any ways I can save this graphic card. I can borrow a GPU from a cousin if you have any solutions for me. I really don’t want to admit that this card died... I don’t think that this BIOS could kill it because all it seemed it did was increase core clock from 945 to 1070... PS: I have BIOS backup.
