Notice: Neither me or TPU are accountable for you screwing your card up attempting to use any BIOS found here-in.
Ok as some of you know I'm getting a X1950Pro shortly, so in the meantime I figured I would grab some 1950 BIOS' an mess with em a little, this is the first attempt at modding a 1950Pro BIOS so changes arent staggering, this BIOS is meant for 512MB 1950Pro cards.
Changes:
Default VGPU vcore changed from 1.3v to 1.4v
Default VGPU core frequency changed from 575MHz to 600MHz
Default memory frequency changed from 1.38GHz to 1.39GHz
Thats it for this BIOS, let me know your results
Edit: This edit is to clarify some things;
1. Latest modded BIOS is 1.7, see P54, post 1330 for download.
2. There is no promises this BIOS will work for you. Its soul purpose was to attempt soft fixes for problematic 1950Pros, as such it is NOT recommended to try any modded BIOS unless you are specifically having problems.
3. This modded BIOS more than likely won't work with all cards due to PCB revisions and differing components, such as memory.
4. 1.7 has been tested with Xpertvision and C3D cards, however take heed of point (3)
5. There is NO surefire way to get a 1950Pro that allows voltage changes via BIOS, its down to pure luck. There doesn't seem to be any one manufacturer where odds are noticably improved, either. I have only heard of and been told about success stories.
6. 1.7 is available in VIVO and non-VIVO flavours, 256MB and 512MB. I have no means of testing 256MB versions without somebody donating a 256MB Pro for testing, so don't bug me if the 256MB version doesn't work for you. See page 56, post 1389 for downloads.
7. As of yet, there is no AGP 1950Pro BIOS, and even when there is, I'll have no means of testing it.
