Over in the forums of TechInferno.com some guys have just picked up working on a new BIOS editor software for, so far, mobile Radeon BIOSes.

Until now, only a Dell 7970m BIOS is supported, but the guys are clever coders and may come up with more flexible versions shortly.

It's very worth checking by from time to time there I think. Keep up your good work, svl7, chmod1337 and geischtli! :toast:

Thanks, but well, that link is not too great. There's a separate section in the forum there, follow this link.
Eventually the program will be released via the download section on the main page.

That vBIOS patcher works great for my 7970M setup.

Looking forward to this. Hoping this will help with flashing a HD7950 to HD7970.

Thanks for the heads up Bagzz

If anyone is looking for one, I do have an "unlocked" reference HD 7970 bios. Just let me know and I'll send it to you.

Sounds interesting, can I take a look at it? What exactly are the differences to the stock VBIOS?

Does this work with locked DCII/TOP 7970 cards, possible to unlock them? :(

Is there anyway I can get a copy of the stock Dell Bios?

The Radeon Bios Editor looks great and works on Win2k too! Hooray! :)

...now just how to convince GPU-Z to grab bios file from the oldie R9200 card... :D GPU-Z v0.4.6 did not want to save the bios and more recent versions does not work, lol.

Isn't this a better tool for BIOS modding now? Seems to work reliably.

That does not work on Windows 2000 SP4 ;) Hence this is nothing for me at all :)

There is only one regret - and that it does not show the memory timings, like the old ATI bios editor RaBit did...
