My Sapphire hd 6950 is flash in 6970.

I played one month without any problem (whith 1536 Shaders). Now when I play Call of.., batterfield, MH... The scren turns white.
I can see the mouse cursor in the scren, I can hear the sound of the game.
But can not see because it is white.

I can get out of the game back to normal windows and image reappears.


Stanting PC at position 2 without ( 1536 Shaders). 6950 PC it works normal.

Anyone know what can be??

Have you tried to flash the card back to the original bios (backup bios)? Just to see if it white screens during the game??

why did you flash it to the 6970 in the first place?

Have you tried the HIS bios?

It doesn't affect the memory voltages..it just unlocks the shaders to 1536..then if needed you can adjust the core voltage +12% in AMD Control center

You should have just used RBE to unlock shaders only, flash a full 6970 bios has been known to kill cards.

Because people want to have the benefits of a 6970.. duh.

Wonder if that bios would work on my MSi HD 6950 Twin Frozr III card? Hmmm

What if you are unable to unlock shaders via RBE?

Edit: I think I have to do a command for it in CMD..
