Hello. I reflash BIOS on Sapphire ATI Radeon HD3650 512 Mb through DOS using Flashrom 2.40. Q: My video card is PCI-E, which code of the device instead of "0" type on this line: A: \ flashrom.exe -p -f 0 newrom.rom? Since 0-for AGP graphics cards, as I understand it,and with this code does not want to reflash

Flashed through Atiflash 3.62. All went well, went to Windows, deleted the old drivers, re-installed, but the Catalyst displays a message stating that "the ATI drivers are not installed or not functioning correctly. Install the drivers for ATI". Indications GPU-Z after the flash decreased by 2 times. And the slow graphics card too much. Before flashing BIOS edited, lowered the memory clock speed from 500 to 468 Mhz. But the memory (and other parameters) after the flash is working at half speed. What does this mean?
 
Restore to your backup bios. What are you trying to accomplish?
 
I wanted to reduce the frequency of memory, as it gave out artifacts, found the frequency with which it works without artifacts, edited the frequency in the BIOS, reflashed and got that I wrote...

Rather than messing with this, why aren't you RMA'ing the card?
 
What's that RMA'ing the card? If you can, in more detail ...
 
Unfortunately, the warranty period has expired. Can you advise on the settings of the program TechPowerUp RBE? Maybe I overlooked some detail there ...

underclock using MSI afterburner, it is easier and risk free
 
Have you saved the old BIOS?
 
Yes, of course. But the problem with the artifacts I didn't eliminated
 
To be honest, I would have bought a new card.
