Easiest way to flash your X800GTO2 via dvd \ cd

Important. The Initial Flashrom Had An Error When Flashing Back To 12 Pipes, This Has Been Fixed But You Will Need To Redownload The Iso And Make A New Boot Cd. Sorry For The Trouble. the same links are fine as ive swapped the files out.
 
erm, if you e-mail me the standard connect bios and modded bios then sure, the only reason i havent done it is i havent come across mthe modded bios for the GTO... but basically i can make a fash util for any card now provided people give me the bios update and the original. send them to my e-mail in the trust. oh and yes, using a PCI card should allow you to flash back fine :)

I've personally not heard of it even once yet, and I was doing extensive research on the GTO² before I made my decision to buy one. The chances of it going wrong must be so infinitecimally small that I wouldn't worry about it.

he is talking about the GTO though so the chances of a bad flash are a lot higher (despite techpowerups rather sloppy counting of successes and failiures... ) but ive never heard of an unrecoverable flash, at least not from a graphics card. ive known a few motherboards to be written off which then needed an eeprom programmer to fix lol, but graphics cards are quite different so dont worry :)

Cool ,as long as I can recover from a failed flash using a PCI card then I'm quite happy to give it a go :)
Btw any idea of the success rate on C3D GTOs? ,you mentioned 'a lot higher' ,any links about that?

well tech power up says 42 modded and 1 failed but i know of at least 6 failed flashes for GTO`s. when people flsh well they report it because they are happy, when it fails, those people dont bother....

im not sure what the ati tool is? case temps were maxing out at 38 so no problem there. my psu has blew and took the mobo out with it so i cant do anything at the minute, ill test everything once ive got the replacement items

case temps of 38oC in november is BAD BAD BAD... :(
 
ati tool measures it, what do you think that green grid with 30o at the bottom and 90o at the top is... :rolleyes: :D also if you minimise it to your tray it gives the temp in there.
 
use ATI tool to see your current pipes which will be 12. install it, open it up, click settings and there will be a load of info in the white area of the box that pops up, just scroll down and youl see your active pipelines

remember and repeat...

"google is my friend" "i will use google" "i love google" :D
 
i think it shows 2 adapters due to the capabillity of a secondary display off the one card, :) but dont quote me on that, either way its fairly normal.
 
true Assimilator1 but it depends on which batch of GTO`s they are, the newest batch will not modify at all :( even with the ones before modding them was by no means certain :(
