No BIOS flash is needed, just set 2d/3d profiles (2d for windows etc., and 3d will load automatically when you start a game)vizor said:

1. The X600pro uses the same chip as the X600XT (RV380) but not the same as the 9600XT (RV360). I would not use a 9600XT BIOS. There is a X600XT BIOS in the BIOS database of this site (under ATi). Make sure your memory is Hynix 2.8ns. (checking it says Hynix on the chips is probably sufficient). If it is not dump your BIOS in ATitool and submit it to the BIOS collection. I'm sure wizzard will make it modifiable. To find out what your memory is I would just search for what's written on it on the internet.
2. You can set 2D/3D frequencies in ATitool but you can also set the default frequencies of a BIOS that you download from this site by doing an advanced download. So if you only want to run it at its max stable frequencies and you are downloading a new BIOS anyway I would do this.
