hello

soo i was stupid enough to flash my 7300GT into a 7600GT (although i quite knew it wont work)

after i restarted the screen just showed lines all over, and the pc wont boot
so i plugged my monitor into the integrated gpu i have and it all works well, so i hoped i could fix the flash but unfortunately every time i plug my gpu in it just blacks the screen and i think it boots but im not sure(doesn't help if i cant see)

is there anyway to reset the bios in the card?

thanks if you can help although i think i screwed it up lol

see if there's a video boot order in BIOS and set it so the IGP is 1st or the only device selected.

If you memorize the steps needed, you might be able to do a blind flash too.

You can always do a blind flash or use a different PCI card to display along with the 7300 and pick the 7300 to flash
