Title: I've got a brick! Help! Post by: dragonmike on June 01, 2017, 10:20:32 PM I was in the process of flashing my gpus. All was going well, but for the last one it seems. System crashed. Now won't boot when that card is plugged in.
The other cards in the rig seem fine. But how to I unbrick a card if the system doesn't boot when that card's plugged in? Help!! :'( Title: Re: I've got a brick! Help! Post by: xxcsu on June 02, 2017, 01:47:42 AM plug in one working card in the first pci slot ( PCI-Express 2.0 x16 Slot) on the mobo , or use integrated gpu , connect the bad vga card via powered riser to the mobo , boot the pc.
Or you can try connect both cards via risers... start atiflash , if you are lucky , atflash going to see the card. What is your system spec? Title: Re: I've got a brick! Help! Post by: dragonmike on June 02, 2017, 08:58:23 AM Thanks - I managed to unbrick the card by shorting pins 1 and 8 according to this guide: http://www.overclock.net/t/593427/how-to-unbrick-your-bricked-graphics-card-fix-a-failed-bios-flash/230
Anything else wouldn't work. Windows wouldn't even start even if I used on-board gfx. Lifesaver that guide! Title: Re: I've got a brick! Help! Post by: MA3A on June 11, 2017, 06:14:30 AM There is also an option to flash chip directly with programmer.
