Problem flashing bios.

[enxian]

i have a problem with a flash 9800pro to xt is a core R360 physical

i downloaded the flash gecubeXT hynix, i have hynix memorys. ill follow all steps but i try with different names.

flashrom -p 0 9800xt Error 0FL01 9800xt name is incorrec
flashrom -p 0 9800xt.bin i have this error

Serial Rom
Bios dev = 0x4E4A
ASIC dev= 0x4E48
Existing memcfg=0x2240
New memcfg =0x2240
Existing SSID=0x0002
New SSID=0x1002

SSID does not match with bios file "9800xt.bin" SSID!
use '-f' for force flashing

Error 0FL01

i use the -f but i hear a different sounds and not work
my adapter info tells me 0*

try just: flashrom -p -f 9800xt.bin

I didnt use Flashrom I used Gigabytes Flash program so I just put: gvf11 -p -f 9600xt.f1 and it worked great. I have always used that program and it works great. BTW who made the PRO to start with?

i tried with sapphire bios have the same SSID of my card? i dont know what is SSID. other thing in my bios info tells me lock option "yes"

Existing BIOS P/N =113-A07537-103
New BIOS P/N = 113-A18812-100

i tried with all commands and atiflash and no one's work DOS4GW.EXE in atiflash stock and dont work.

 

[INSTG8R]

you are changing the Device ID on the card
so it has to be forced
I have a Sapphire 9800Pro with an XT core and mine flashed very easily using the Gecube XT BIOS and the Sapphire XT BIOS but I had to force the first flash

 

[enxian]

i try force with two drivers but i hear sounds and dont work.

i have an internal video card and my pc is from sony vaio.

the DOS4GW.EXE from atiflash stuck and dont work.

 

[INSTG8R]

how can you hear a sound? this should be done in DOS. What sounds are you hearing and what error is it giving you?

 

[enxian]

i hear sounds of my motherboard and errors in -p Error 0FL01 in the name of the file.

 

[INSTG8R]

you need to use 2 seperate disks
1 to boot you into DOS then the other should contain the Flash Program +BIOS

 

[enxian]

yes i have enter on MS-Dos but in a boot cd disk.

and my disk have a flash and bios prog.


the command is flashrom -p 0 newbios
and the name of the file is newbios.bin

its and 98se boot

 

[INSTG8R]

okay well first I would say just type in Flashrom at A prompt and it will give you the Switches
run the one that will ID your card as it is and see if it sees it first

 

[enxian]

0* and asic is 300/350 and lock=yes the device id is 4E48

 

[INSTG8R]

Well I would say go find Gigabyte Flash program as it easy to use and I have flashed my old card dozens of times and my 9800PRO to XT with little or no hassle(tryed the Gecube first then decided on the Sapphire)

 

[enxian]

dude can you send me the utility i cant find it...

 

[INSTG8R]

Try Here
this is for flashing x800s but its what I have been using for 6 months and it has never failed me

 

[enxian]

wow thanks dude finally flash it! i recommend the atiflash and command you gave me -p -f for quit lock. thanks the card works normal no artifacs at that speed.
