Getting 8 beeps on my AMI bios indicating graphics card problem. Other times seeing garbage on screen when posting.. see pics. Anyone have a bios? Another name for card is CL GD5420 75qc-c.
Also, anyone know what ic these cards use to program? My bios reader is not detecting the chip . Thanks.

Looks more like a hardware defect. Possibly RAM or some loose pins from the GPU itself.

Very well could be. Refreshing bios is a long shot but worth it. Card looks pristine but that doesn't mean there isn't bad ram.

Solved problem with a change to jumper on card. I have no documentation for the card but gave it a try.
