the word is 2~3 percent.but it depends on how the card is used,i gues

a few percent,but hey its free so why not. :)

the only difference to the steps above ,is that i rebooted the pc and didnt turn it of for a minute. you think this is the key to unlock the saphire dirt3? btw i flashed with atiflash under dos,and flashing went fine,just no extra shaders, and yes i reinstalled the drivers. the pencil trick is...

flip the switch on the card.

you should use the rbe method,to modifie your own bios.even when the shaders do not unlock ,the card still works normal.

yes your bios is the same as a standart 6950 bois with unlocked shaders(like rbe modded) i checked and its bit for bit the same. but in my saphire dirt 3 it doesnt unlock shaders. seems it is pretty random with those cards,wether it unlocks or not(your lucky) 2 pages back someone has 2 of...

best is to overclock with software to be safe.you can go even past the ccc limits with saphire overclock program. could you post the bios you flashed,and original bios please?

i could not unlock my shaders with my saphire dirt3 2 card,as you have probably read above. unchiu has2 identical card's 1 unlocks, the other one doesnt. you could try using the batfile method in post 381(on that page). you could post your bios here for devellopment,maybe in the future...

hm your eyes and camara are better then mine:o i think i give up on it.probably hard locked. ill keep an eye on this thread.

look here @ the bottem of the card. if they are lasercut,then from now on,al 6950 should be hard locked. hopefully not. best thing is to compare to see any differences.

i tryed the other cayman shaders 4 ,doesnt unlock shaders:shadedshu i took detailed pics of my card without cooler. maybe we can compare with card that is unlockable. also ,the modded bios with rbe is different from modded bios with bat.file page 381,also different from your cayman shaders 4...

i hope i can help you and myself.i have a look ok your xxxx4 and xxxx7 and my original bios are identical. i tryd flashing your xxxxx4 880 mod bios gives me a bsod. then i lowered the clock speed to normal in your mod bios then it was ok ,but no shaders. then i compared your mod bios normal...

hi i also have a dirt edition,witch flashed but no unlocked shaders. my bios checksum= 0xC500 where is the serial nr you mean? and witch card was succesfull,the xxxx7 or the xxxx4 ? could u post the original and modfied bios from your first card here?also post the bios of the other one,i can...

seems it doesnt see the adaptor. so maybe id 1 is wrong,or maybe some bios setting disabled the 2e pci-e slot. there is a command in atilash to see witch card is witch. maybe use a pci grafics card to boot and put the 6950 in the fisrt slot and flash with the switch 0

thats not the dirt3 edition. yours has 1 gb mem. i have the same problem as footman,flashing went fine(altough the bios switch was by default on the locked rom,so i had to flip it first to be able to flash) first i tried rbe mehtod with only the shaders unlocked, then i tried forcing a 6970...
