Hi everyone

Here's my problem. I recently flashed my sapphire x800 GTO Fireblade Edition PCI-E x16 graphics card with a bios from Techpowerup.com. Well, when I flashed the BIOS using WinFlash, the computer froze completely. For some reason I blanked out and being a complete dumbass, restarted the computer. Now it won't boot.

I have a Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 PCI that I'm using right now as a way to still use my computer, but any attempt to re-flash the BIOS has been unsuccessful. If I plug both cards in and try to boot up I get BSOD'd. If I try to use a boot disk with Flashrom I get an "ERROR 0FL01 Adapter 0 cannot be found". I searched all over for a solution but for some reason they all talk about fixing it with AGP cards, which is a whole different situation.

I greatly appreciate your help. Thanks!
