use dos for sure, i dont trust windows flash utilies. the ati win flash never worked for me in 64 bit anyways.
Like crazyeyes said atiflash -p 0 -5850mod.bin. you might need to throw the -f in there cause its a different vendor.

Cool, thanks. I was hoping ATi Winflash was more stable. I bricked a 3870 with it, and that was the last time I messed with flashing a bios, well I fixed it using the DOS flash. Well, I'll give it a go when I get home. Thanks for the help. :toast:

So you can flash with RBE now? Does it work well?

I also can't find the info on how to use ATi Flash if RBE flashing doesn't work.

Also, @Shroomy, can I change the the vendor ID in RBE or does it need to stay MSI? My card is a Diamond if that matters.

ShRoOmAlIsTiC · Apr 7, 2010

i would keep it at msi, if you change it it will mess up the signature and make it so CCC wont work. At least threw my experience thats what has happened.

Make a usb dos drive
download the latest ati flash utility from tpu
http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/1731/ATIFlash_3.79.html
add a atiflash folder to it and extract the the files from atiflash there

Make sure you back up your current bios with gpu-z

once booted from the usb type cd atiflash
then use the command
atiflash -p 0 5850mod.bin -f

If the win ati flash works then you could give it a try. it wont even start up for me.

You have a good link to make a USB DOS drive? I remember using some sort of HP utility...

That's the one I found, formatting the USB stick now. :toast:

Don't mean to question you, but isn't it "atiflash -p -f 0 5850mod.bin"? I just haven't seen it with the force flash command at the end before. :confused:

Also, should I uninstall my drivers before flashing?

Thanks for all your help. :toast:

Why are you guys flashing your 5850s?

To get better overclocking options in CCC. This way 2d clocks remain in tact and no more 3rd party overclocking utilities.

Are you getting higher clocks in CCC with the bios?

I'm not done yet. Need answers to my questions first. I'm being n00by with this, but I just want to be safe.

I ask because mine didn't OC worth a damn. I can't make it past 775/1125 even with a volt bump.

johnnyfiive · Apr 7, 2010

I'm a fan of MSI After Burner. I won't touch BIOS flashing with GPUs.

Which model? This makes me even more surprised and pleased that mine does over 950 with stock 1.09v.

erocker · Apr 7, 2010

This is why you flash:

Super awesomesauce bios Shroomtastic! Thanks again. :toast:

Which 5850 do you have? My Asus needs 1.125 to bench at 899 but my memory is stable at 1215 and im not done testing yet.

It was only $279 shipped (during a weekend sale; usually around $299 like the other non-refs with no bundle or anything special but suddenly $314 wow) and I was furthemore reluctant as it only had a few uninformative reviews at the time but I lucked out with a great clocker for stock volts. Like the cooler and blue pcb too.

erocker · Apr 7, 2010

It seems as if CCC interferes with the fan profile in RBE. I set it to idle at 31% instead of 21%. Without any drivers installed it indeed does idle at 31%. With CCC installed 21%. Under load it's following the stock profile as well in CCC. Is there a way to fix this?

Thread in the RBE section on it here: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=114686

Now that I'm done fiddling with my crap...

So, you are using Afterburner and can't overclock your card?

I was and gave up.

crazyeyesreaper · Apr 8, 2010

dont feel bad mailman everyone knows i couldnt use afterburner at ALL period even now im back to it locking up all over again when adjusting voltages but with the unlocked bios i can hit 850 /1150 but i usually just stay at 850/1000 in say crysis or metro as every other game i have 0 slow down

erocker · Apr 8, 2010

But you can do it and stuff...

Install afterburner.
After you install go to the Afterburner file where you installed it
Find the afterburner.cfg file
Right click, Edit
Change the value on "UnnoficialATioverclocking" (or something like that) from 0 to 1.
Overclock!!

crazyeyesreaper · Apr 8, 2010

yea hopefully that works for him but it dosent fix anything on my end

ive had afterburner lock up from release driver straight through to 10.3b sometimes voltage adjustment works other times it dosent only way i got the thing to overclock stably was to flash to the new bios aka the unlocked msi ones
