ok i figured this out.. its a volt bug, read about it at Xtremesystem forum, it seems its a bug that dont allow <--spell? volt over 1.2 on GPU. Some think ist a driver problem.. i dont, i have been testing every damn driver that exsist. im gonna follow that topic and see if any one figure it out. I realy would like to do a hard vmod instead. If you see any to a GTO or XL, please tell me.
I havent tryed out your bios mod yet Jonathan, but if you have only raised up the volt in RaBit i have allready done that.. 10000 times.

ok tested it, sorry it the same. It must be something that is holding it up.. like a resistans that dont let the volt go up higher on the board, how old is your card Jonathan?

I have a question:
for the x800gto @ x800xt pe mod you need a spezial flashrom (flashrom16p).
Is therer something for the x1800 gto too? Or does it works the the flashrom16p?

Thx for answers

To flash x1800gto you need only atiflash.exe and bios from x1800xl/xt

Yes thats right.
But so you can only active 16 pips with HIS cards(and a few connect3d).
I have a Sapphire (GB_PIPE_SELECT 0x12BB4). And i wanted to know if there is a way to active the 16 pips too.

A few days ago i flashed a x800gto @x800xt pe. And i found out that you can only active the 16 pips with the flashrom16p.

And now i want to know if there is a spezial flashrom for the x1800gto too.

If you look at the start of this thread, chron has posted a guide on how to mod your own bios. I guess if it don't work this way then it won't work any other way.
