Ok so just yesterday I wanted to flash my ATI Radeon 9550 256mb to an ATI Radeon 9600PRO 256 memory. I made sure I checked core speeds, mem speeds and memory manufacturer. I downloaded the BIOS for the new card and then attempted flashing my card with ATI winflash. The progress bar went to one hundred, then it told me "Vbios flash successful, restart?". I clicked yes. I then got diagnostic beeping from my motherboard, and the card failed to initialize... (Boy is that a frightening experience for your first time flashing a Vbios). I then attempted to reflash the card by going in with my PCI card. This time I tried using ATIFLASH... but trying to get the card to flash failed like so.
Flash Type:NX25F001B/C
Write Fail
0/10000h bytes programmed
Error OFL01
First... do you think this is typical of a non-compatible BIOS, or
Second... do yout think I corrupted my BIOS memory? (hope not)
Also I didn't back up my original BIOS like an idiot
if anyone has a BIOS for an ATI Radeon 9550 256mb Hynix that would be awesome!!!
advice???
