The cards have dual bios, with a switch. i flashed the first bios which failed so i flipped the switch, which reverted it back to stock. but i would like to get the other bios back in operation so i can mod it, as i am left now with 1 good bios on the card and i dont want to lose the whole card by trying to flash the last remaining bios. ( in case it is a hardware issue with the internals of the card) do you understand what im saying now? as i can get more detailed in my description or add pictures of the card with the switch if you have never seen dual bios cards before
I have flashed 34 rx480's with no issue, some with dual bios some without. but this is the first time ive encountered this type of issue after flashing a card with direct bios off that card with added mild modifications as it was only undervolting and slight adjustment to the max power that you did < right notbatman.

Unlike notbatman, i avoid changing anything in BIOS but highest strap, just for cases like this when things go badly

Windows won't boot with bad bios card UNLESS you remove amd drivers completely (and try to connect monitor
on good card, or even better, integrated GPU). After doing that, windows will let you boot, and atiflash will
let you reflash good bios over bad one

Also, its Christmas time, don't be so angry about me asking a bit of explanation, and cheer up a bit Cheesy

Sorry if i seemed disgruntled it wasnt directed at you or anyone i was just trying to completely explain my situation so it made more sense, as i could see from my last message it could be misunderstood since i didnt include in the comment it having dual bios, i really appreciate your help and i was just trying to get the information that you just gave me so i could get these up and running as i figured since it wouldnt boot into the other bios and i had no access to the bad bios to reflash it i was stuck with a gimp 580. which im still on the fence about buying since ive only used 480's and these 580's have not lived up to the hype. but i will try that out, just remove the drivers and reflash or use the dedicated graphics and uninstall the bad gpu driver right? and reflash and repeat. also @ treanski you were able to hot switch it without any problems that makes me nervous but i will leave that as a last resort thanks for the advice and @ Branko again thank you and merry christmas everyone.
