RX 580 bad flash!

[Final_Fighter]

Hi big hope on you...... need for msi 580 4go and msi 570 4go.


Hopeeee

will see what i can do.

edit: here you go. run "bios flash" as admin. if that does not work just run it regularly. if that still does not work run "AtiFlash.exe" as admin and dont close the window that pops up, just leave it alone! now open "Bios flash" and it should flash the rom.

I know, but does it even pay the power bills what the mining uses?

Power bill is a small thing to worry about thanks do this freaking mining spree there lies a big sign OUT OF STOCK at every shop.

But why ???? do you have a solution, that's the final step. HOPE

 

[Final_Fighter]

have you tried right clicking on the icon and selecting run as administrator?

try right clicking on "AtiFlash.exe" and click "run as administrator". after you do that dont press any key. just leave the command prompt window open then double click "bios flash.bat". that should do it.

edit: follow the images in order from step 1, 2, 3.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

Use Windows powershell instead right click on Windows logo ,power shell with admin, then add.
.\

To any flash command at the start.

Unfortunetly, on safe mode i can't do that., cause i'am on BUILT IN ADMIN. I try to change local police security to allowed me on safe mode, and to be not on BUILT IN, but no way nothing APPENED. I'am currently trying to restore the bios with a USB BOOT. I'am on the right way i think. The only thing that i need now, is to find num of adaptater, cause when i put atiflash -f - p 0 bios.rom , i've got ADAPTER LOST.

One card at a time easier

Ok i'am totally done. I saw that apparently, my cards have got the bios block. And you don't have any chance to unlock the bios.................. F$#%! i'am done.

I will try to send the 6 cards on warrantly, and hope MSI will be kind with me, and unlock the bios to restore the good one.

I will buy 6 new card anyway, but this time, SAPPHIRE will be my choice, cause if i'am stupid again, i've got the security of the switch mode on the card to come back.

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

You can unlock bios using atiflas

Ok i'am totally done. I saw that apparently, my cards have got the bios block. And you don't have any chance to unlock the bios.................. FUCKKKK, i'am done.

FREAKING SHIT

You could do with a testrig pc to setup cards on mate, you can unlock bios using atiflash but i see your issues prevent it but adding a card at a time into a pc with a ok os it would be easy to unlock and force flash a bios even if the cards not seen it can still work but to be honest im baffled if they were locked how did you manage to write the bad bios to them.

Contact MSI for the correct bios, tools and procedures. You need the model and sku of the card. If that doesn't work, rma chances are slim especially since you "tampered" with the card. You can try but no guarantee. By the way you hsve to make sure the card does have a dual bios, as some do not.

Ok i'am back in the fight now. So if i resume, i've got to success possibilites :

2 situations problems :

1) I can run on Windows the onboard graphic card, with the 570 rX connected, but withtout the driver. So i've got on device manager : Micrososft video etcc. If i want to install the driver, during the installation, i've got a blue screen with (SYSTEM ERROR FAILURE )........

2) I can run on Windows safe mode with the onboard graphic card, with the 570 rx connected, and i can install the driver. In device manager : 570 RX OK. The problem is, i can't run atiflash on safe mode. Even with admin access, local police security allowed etcccccccc. I'am still on built in administrator.........


So if someone knows how win against one of these situation, i think my cards will be save )))

try creating a bootable usb dos drive and flash from dos.

Already done but apparently no adaptateur found on the dos. Look previous post, i posted a picture

try creating a bootable usb dos drive and flash from dos.

ALL RIGHT GUYSSSSSSSSSS I AM FREAKINGGGGGGG BACK IN THE GAMMEEEEEEE. I've got my 6 cards running well with a good MOD : 171 MH YESSSSSS.

THE MEN KILL THE MACHINEEEEEEEE.

Thank you every one, specially FINAL FIGHTER. Your ROM save me

How i did it : So like everything wasn't the good solution. I reset windows to have something clean.

I took one of my RX580.
Connect one of the cracked RX570
Run into windows safemode
Install driver on RX570
Run into windows
Open with admin right atiflash : i could see my RX 580, and one AMD RADEON 10 play (the rx 570 with unstalled driver)
Wasn't possible to program the back up bios on the amd radeon 10 (cause nothing was seeing)
So go in CMD : and did : atiwinflash -f -p 1 rx570.rom (the backup)
Reboot
Run in device manager : So i could see the RX580 and a Micrososft vga device
Click on it and Install the catalyst 17.5.2


AND GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Every thing all right.

I 'am so happy thank you every one. Now i think, i'am an expert on bios mistake )))).

 

[Final_Fighter]

good job!

Dude, I have unfortunately the same issue, can you explain a little bit more on your solution,?... which Windows version did you used? did you install the RX580 in normal mode? did you use your motherboard as the primary source of video or the RX580? when you said install the driver for the RX570 in safe mode which driver did you refer, the one on the installation CD each card contains?


Robin ... Thanks in advance for your help.

Goodluck with getting an answer, he hasn't been here since June 20th.


There are plenty of guides out there to recover from a bad flash, same with videos you just have to do the foot work to get them.

@infrared, @fullinfusion, @MrGenius, what are your thoughts on this matter?

1. Windows version doesn't matter.

2. He doesn't mention installing the RX 580. I assume by "install" you mean "install the drivers for". He says he installed the drivers for the RX 570 in safe-mode. Then he booted normally into Windows and I think he used atiflash in command line mode to find the adapter #s for both cards. The RX 580 and RX 570. The RX 570(with uninstalled driver? ) was identified as AMD RADEON 10(in device manager or by atiflash? ). And presumably found the AMD RADEON 10/RX 570 listed as adapter #1. Though he says "nothing was seeing" it...so that doesn't make much sense...anyway...somehow he figured out it was adapter #1. So he force flashed the AMD RADEON 10(RX 570) using atiwinflash -f -p 1 rx570.rom . That's all the sense I can make of it. But it's a little weird the way he worded it. So I'm not 100% sure what he's trying to say.

3. He used the RX 580 as the primary source of video.

4. I think he meant to say he uninstalled the driver for the RX 570 in safe-mode. Because he then says "AMD RADEON 10 play (the rx 570 with unstalled driver)". And goes on to say that after flashing the RX 570 BIOS he rebooted and installed catalyst 17.5.2 drivers for it. Anyway driver version doesn't matter. Drivers installed or not doesn't matter for flashing a BIOS. You might have trouble installing correct drivers for a card with an incorrect BIOS though. Which is probably the point he was trying to make. Correct BIOS first, correct drivers second.

Running into the same issue myself.

Have 6 RX 580s. Plugged in one by one, backed up original bios, flashed a modded one. All good. Started the system with all 6 connected, everything ran fine for about 2 hours before i turned off the PC. The next morning when I boot, Windows will only give BSOD at login. Same like OP.

Primary video source is onboard graphics.

Plugged in one by one to debug, turned out when I had this card connected will only BSOD when trying to load the driver.

Things I've tried:

Booted in safe mode, ddu all drivers.
Booted back in windows, can see the card in device manager, but if I try to install the driver it will throw a bsod during installation (system thread exception not handled, atikdmag.sys)
Given that I can see the card even though the driver is not installed, run AtiWinFlash again and flashed the original bios. Still BSOD when trying to install the driver.
Changed risers, still nothing.

Don't know what else to try.

 

[jboydgolfer]

you mentioned that you flashed modded bios' to the cards, maybe it damaged the video cards with Settings that were too aggressive?

Maybe try flashing back to the proper bios and see if it recovers the ones that won't boot and hopefully (if this is the case) it stops the others from being damaged if they're not all damaged already

 

[eidairaman1]

Go search for the mining bios repository, read directions there for flashing.

Where are your specs?

 

[dimineata]

I am trying to set up a mining rig

Specs are as follows:

AsRock H110 Pro MB
Intel g4400 cpu
4 gb corsair ram
6 PowerColor RX 580 8 GB (4 with Samsung memory, 2 with Hynix memory)
Windows 10 PRO

The dodgy one is one with Samsung memory, second in the sequence of flashing.
As for too agressive flash, I only copied a memory strap, that was all. Other 3 cards are just fine with those copied straps.

The strap may not be compatible, ensure you use the igp and put that card in the pcie slot for graphics then reflash using the stock bios, then search for the mining bios repository on here for additional help

my suggestion stands, i recommend , atleast setting the problem GPU's back to the proper defaults, and seeing if that resolves. you have clearly tried what you can think of, so whats to lose? your time basically.
