CYTAT
So, to make sure you have the correct card, it’s easiest to consult the box where the card came in. On the box you will find a green sticker with some barcodes and some serial numbers. The BIOS update is only applicable if on your sticker the serial numbers are:
* PN 188-01E85-001SA
* SKU# 11133-00-20R
Also you can check these settings in the ATI CCC:
* Original BIOS on board with date: 24.07.2008
* BIOS version: 011.006.000.003.000000
Permanent Solution, ONLY for Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB DDR5
!Important to note for this solution is that this works ONLY for the Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB DDR5!
This is because this solution requires a BIOS update of the card, which is provided by Sapphire.

* BIOS version: 011.006.000.003.000000
If all of this checks out for your card the BIOS update can be done. To do the BIOS update we will need a few things:
-
The BIOS update from Sapphire, http://www.sapphiretech.com/us/support/drivers.php
-
An alternative download from RapidShare, http://rapidshare.com/files/14833927…rking.zip.html
-
ATI Win Flash, for easier BIOS updating in Windows, http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads…h_2.0.1.2.html
With both these we can perform the BIOS update. Note that it is also possible to flash the card via the regular ATI flash but I decided to go for the WinFlash solution. As it doesn’t require the creation of a Boot Disk.
The steps to undertake to flash the BIOS.
-
First, make sure to end all applications which do something with the GFX card (such as RivaTuner or any game)
-
Install ATI WinFlash to a “simple location” (fex. C:\WinFlash)
-
Unzip the contents of the BIOS update into a folder
-
Copy/Paste the file named 1e8501sa.002 from the folder where you extracted the BIOS update, to the ATI WinFlash install folder
-
Click on the Start menu and select Run
-
Type in “cmd” (without the quotes) and press OK
-
Browse to the install path of ATI WinFlash (fex. C:\WinFlash)
-
Run the BIOS update by executing: atiwinflash.exe -f -p 0 1e8501sa.002
-
Wait until the flashing finishes, should it fail do NOT reset, yet try to flash again
-
If it worked, reboot your system.
A note about the WinFlash utility, if your card is not in the top slot, or if you want to update two cards you can do so by changing the command line. The third parameter in the list is the PCI-E slot (the 0), where 0 is the top slot, and where 1 is the PCI-E slot below it. So if you were flashing your card in the second slot the command line would look like: atiwinflash.exe -f -p 1 1e8501sa.002
Edit:
Flashing the 4870 in DOS, with a bootable USB stick
As Maeror had an issue with his card where he could not flash it in Windows anymore, I added this section as well. This details flashing your 4870 BIOS via a DOS boot. It requires you to have a USB stick which you can use to create it as a bootable “disk”.
Also please note that this solution requires the ATIFlash utility! This is not the ATIWinFlash utility, which I mentioned in the other Flash solution. The ATIFlash is a DOS only program and needs to be run from there. It can be found in the BIOS update that is downloaded from the Sapphire website.
The instructions to do this are as follows:
-
Create your USB boot stick in windows with USB Boot drive (HPUSBFW), found at: http://www.elektroni.fi/Stilt/Asus_Rampage/HPUSBFW.zip
-
Download the boot files and extract them to a folder of your choice from: http://www.elektroni.fi/Stilt/Asus_Rampage/USB-Boot.zip
-
Run the HPUSBFW program. Select the correct USB device from the drop-down menu, set file system to FAT32 and check Create a DOS startup disk. Then browse for the extracted boot files (now in the folder of your choice) and press start to begin formating it.
-
Copy ATIFlash and the BIOS file to the USB stick under Windows
-
Restart the computer
-
Enter the Motherboard BIOS (by pressing the Delete key at startup) and set the first boot device to the USB stick that you created
-
Save that settings in the MoBo BIOS and exit
-
Your PC will then automatically boot to DOS
-
Flash with the command as described: “atiflash -f -p 0 1e8501sa.002” (without the quotes). And then wait till it prompts you that you need to restart the PC
-
When rebooting, go back to your MoBo BIOS and change first booting device back as it was before
After having flashed my BIOS I have been able to play all day yesterday without a single problem. Also the reports I’ve heard from other people who applied this fix are only positive. Either way I can finally (after having my ATI card for about a week or so) play the game without having to rely on my older card.
