    I just checked the dumped original bios from my sapphire card, it is indeed truncated. I'll track down a pci video card tomorrow and flash the 4870.bin back onto the board, hopefully that will fix it ^^.

    Thanks a ton W1zzard.

    To everyone who's up in arms about the thread title ask yourself this, if you modded a bios with a trusted graphics tool to change fan profiles - not to overvolt, not to overclock - and the board worked for a day before crapping out randomly what would your first reaction be? What would your reaction be after you heard that people were having the board die without flashing a bios in? I'm perfectly happy to admit my own mistakes, but I'm not going to take a bunch of for an honest one. I think at this point the title could probably change to reflect the fact that we're talking about fixing a bad bios flash, but the bashing and whining isn't necessary.
