Tofu, so was I right about the hex code?

I knew I was right. Look at post #72 , I pointed out the GB_PIPE_SELECT very early in the game. http://forums.techpowerup.com/showpost.php?p=106856&postcount=72

What command line did you try with atiflash? http://www.mvktech.net/content/view/17/37/ ATIFlash Commands Backup ATI Bios: atiflash -s 0 backup.rom Flash New Bios: atiflash -p 0 newbios.rom Force Flash New Bios: atiflash -f -p 0 file.rom Use ST M25Pxx flashing algorithm...

Do you have CCC installed?

You're kidding right? Please tell me your using phase cooling...

Have you ever taken a HSF off a video card?

Hrmm, that might be worth a try. I opened up the BIOS you just modded the vgpu on , and its already set to "18" , maybe changing the deviceID to match the pro bios triggers something. It's worth a try for whoever is willing to risk it.

tofu, when you modded the Sapphire BIOS. Did you try to also change the deviceID to match the pro?

I need someone who's willing to test it for me, someone who knows the bios recovery process. And their card's BIOS.

Yes, you are correct. But now you have a better idea of the data location. Also, you're unlocked bios and my bios both have the same bit "2" for the pipe config. Ill take a look at Migou's bios and see what it's set to. EDIT: Migou's is set to 2 as well, so that's probably not the right...

Its simple to see, Read the decimals backwards on circled locations, you'll see the data matches, but have different locations.

when you work in IT for 10 years, you gain a knack for figuring stuff out on your own. I have never modded a bios.

Sure, ATITool reports my card's PIPE config location as 0x3FE4. So you take that bit and its surrounding bits and compare them to the top locations same data. See a similarity?

Bingo. Top is the GT bios, bottom is my AIW bios

The BIOSs have different file sizes, I noticed it when I opened both files in the HEX compare software.
