Even with my single card, i had issues with a flashed BIOS Tatty. I gave up and just did the hard-vmod, and use Riva to clock now. I'm on 8.10's, atm.Well I have just the one in ATM, I am defeated for the time being, might have another go at the weekend, what surprises me though is how smooth COD World at war runs on just one of these cards at 1920 x 1200, albeit I know the card has 1GB of memory and I run the game for long bursts at 790mhz, I guess at that speed it's as fast (ish) as a 4870.
When Xfire was working, at just 735mhz my 2006 scores are only marginally less than Xfired 4870's.
I even tried the Cat 8.7 drivers that everyone says was the last problem free driver set with crossfire but same error messages and BSOD, maybe these drivers dont like cards with flashed BIOSes that raise the upper limits?....be nice to hear from someone else who has got theirs working if they can keep it working with a flash.
You never know, you might get a belated Christmas present!
