what you're trying to say is?

you did a bad flash.
Your graka doesn't work anymore.
You tried to flash the AGP card while ussing a pci graka.

Maybe you should try to blind flash your card. Use the pci card to make a floppy with a working bios. Shut down your pc (duh) Remove the PCI card and put in the fx5200.
Now you have to flash your fx5200 blind, this means that you got to type all the commands to flash your graka, without seeing it on your screen.

It's hard, so first make a good planning.
- You have to know exactly what you got to type for flashing your graka.
- Give your bios on your floppy a simple name, because you have to type it without seeing it on your screen.

After that I think (hope) your graka is working again.

instead of typing everything blind; make a batchfile?
