To make sure I'm on the same page with you, you have two video cards in your
Mac - the stock Radeon HD 5770 that this model ships with, and the the RX580
you added in, yes? And upon boot, the Mac only shows the boot select screen on
the built-in card and not the RX580, and you concluded it was d
Basically that's because Mac OS contains a hardware abstraction layer which
separates the updater you're trying to run (and VMWare itself, for that matter)
from the actual hardware you're running. It would be best to add the files
you're tying to use to a bootable FreeDOS CD, then boot from that

Hi! Some ideas regarding the possibility to use native
Mac tools for your RX580 graphics card BIOS update task:

There is no boot screen with the rx580, which is why I need to flash the
firmware on it.
I got freedos to boot from the disk, and got ATIFlash running, but it’s only
seeing the original card. My guess is the current RX580 firmware doesn’t boot
in the boot screen.

Hi,
you may use the boot screen blind, with VoiceOver on the Mac. You can
start it with cmd+f5.
I actually am blind so I know it works.

Ok, so I got ATIFlash to run form
Booting by disk, but it is not seeing the RX580, it is only seeing the
original video card ( have to leave it in otherwise I don’t get the boot screen
when holding down option)

Hi!

To be honest, I am pessimistic. I once tried to use
the real graphics card of a commercial VMWare server
workstation for GPU calculations by making it visible
to the OS inside the virtual computer and just got the
ability to crash the real
Would that work if I have a second graphics card ?
If the Mac Pro 5,1 would let you boot from USB, this wouldn’t be an issue.

You cannot update the physical video card from within a virtual machine.

Hi RJ,
the short story is that VMWare creates a fully virtual
computer. You can not install VMWare on Apple to use a
DOS program to update the BIOS of your REAL VGA card.
You would have to run the BIOS update tool on real
hardware. Maybe you can find an Apple tool for VGA
BIOS updates? Or you c
I figured that part out. Now my issue is ATIFLASH says there is no card

Hi!
The C: drive does not map directly to a folder on your host machine.
What I would suggest, because it worked great for me, is that you
create an ISO image containing your files then mount that to your VM
as a CD ROM.
Note that files you copy off of CD ROM in the DOS context will have
