I tried it, Windows won't reinstall the driver for the board like it does when I flash other bioses.

Hi there, thanks in advance for the help. I'm sure others are experiencing I was just wondering if there is a work around? I use overdrive to oc my 4850 for gaming but I also run a HDtv as a secondary monitor on the card. IF I have oc'd the card it causes a BSOD or the display driver to crash...

Method 2 'no hash' you mean? I read in the creator's instructions that it likely won't work and will cause problems with signarture.

Here is a problem I have been having. I want to load one of your higher limit signatures for my 4850 however I use multiple displays as it is connected to my TV for MCE also. Up to this point what I have been doing is disconnecting the display with a profile and applying the overclock with a...

It looks like it was the speed the issue, I upped the multiplier back to 9.5 and simply moved the fsb to 380 and it is stable so far, i have been running orthos for 40 mins with no issue, i will let it run for another couple of hours, so we aren't out of the blue, but I think we have isolated...

Thanks man i will mess around some more.

Thanks for the advice, I am reading a more comprehensive guide on ram overclocking. I do however, understand that @ 1:1 the ram frequency will be 2x the FSB and I am aware that my memory is rated at 800mhz. I guess my last question before I mess around anymore is, do you think that it is...

Memory @ 2.2 I will let you know that I used to run my computer with an overclock from 2.53 to 3.2 on stock volts with 4-4-4-15 and it had no problems with stability. It is now that I have overclocked up to 3.6 I have ram stability issues. I will let you know that the memory is OCZ SLI memory...

It is completely stable @ current levels 8x450 , 6-6-6-18 , It is NOT stable at 5-5-5-15 or 18 Even when I up cpu voltage from 1.38 to 1.45 I have also played with upping the NB voltage and upping the ram to one notch above 2.1. I don't want to put the ram up too much, it has stock ocz...

5-5-5-18 errored in orthos, I had also put my CPU Voltage up to 1.45 but that didn't seem to help. What else can you suggest, it seems like the ram is what is causing instability. I will also let u know its at a 1:1 ratio. The cpu runs stable @ 1.38 @ 8x450 6-6-6-18 Should I up the multiplier...

Hello again, I found the instability was caused by too tight ram timings. I set them to 6-6-6-18 and it ran through orthos for 3 hours with no errors. Better than my previous attempts. My question to you is, which numbers should I try to tighten first? (This ram is rated at 4-4-4-15 but I...

Thanks for all your help guys, after experimenting I finally got to be stable at 8.0x 450 = 3.6 with 1.38 V and I'm pretty happy with it. Also the NB is 1.24. My question now is, it seemed like it was the ram timings that was holding me back before, I have them at 5-5-5-15 right now and the...

What is the advantage of this modded bios? I am running it now but don't really see the difference. This is of course due to my ignorace.

Thanks for your help, I am fine at 3.6 GHZ i'm not going to raise it anymore, just gonna try to get my timings down to 4-4-4-15 as specified by the ram. I am learning how painstaking this is. When I started I assumed that i could ask another user of the same hardware their settings but it...

The stock timings on my ram is actually 4-4-4-15 @ 2.1 I inputed 2.1 in my bios and it loads 4-4-4-15 no problem at stock cpu voltage at 3.2 instead of 3.6. I have read thought memory timings don't make that much of a difference on performance. Load on the cpu is around 58-65 , i watched...
