I know there have been a few posts on this, but my situation is a bit different. I have a Sapphire HD 6950 2gb with a switch. I moved the switch to the position farthest away from he crossfire hub (away from the connectors into the case). I saved the bios and used the command prompt to flash with ati winflash. It flashed, but no shaders. I tried using ati winflash directly. It flashed, but again no shaders. Finally, I used RBE. Nothing. No shaders. Is my card hard locked? The weird thing is when I checked RBE it said the bios my card had on it had 6970 shaders, as did the original bios. But they do not show up[ on Trixx or gpu-z. My guess is that it is hard locked but I would like confirmation first.
