So no matter what I do the card is not detected in the BIOS, tried in multiple motherboards. Until the bios detects it, atiflash wont see it.
got the same problem with a 470 nitro+, at least i send it back to amazon and got a refund for the card, try to do that, i did it and was fine (Even with the modified bios)
I did that last night, new one on the way by friday. My thought is the card was modded on the other position vswitch bios but worked on my current vswitch bios, after I modded that one I had no way to fix either of them, hence why I tried the 1+8, or either the card literally is a dead card.
What I have determined is now that I know all the functions on the card, I will test both vbios switch as normal rom and working, then make sure I am in performance mode that only gets the updated rom
