crap. so i tried to blind flash (i'm assuming that's what it's called when you don't have any video) using the 1.1 hynix bios with the voltage changed to 1.35 and i wasn't sure if i was choosing the right options, well eventually it worked and booted into vista and everything seemed to be working. i tried setting the fan speed in riva tuner to like a safe 50% while i was messing around and when it went to detect the card, bam, no more video. i tried restarting over and over, using my dvi to hdmi, using the dvi to vga, using the pip with both at the same time...nothing! i thought i had a pci video card, but it's agp...anyone have any idea what i should do? i don't see why i cant see anything before windows loads (and now nothing even after vista loads). seems to me like this is directly related with the video bios.

my motherboard has two pci-e slots, and i have an 8800gt, could i put them both in at the same time and then reflash the ati card while on that? maybe i just gotta find a bios that likes my card.

help!
