Guest Conscript Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 May I ask why you want to flash your video card bios? http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleid=1633&page=3 or http://forums.techarena.in/guides-tutorials/1100230.htm <post #5 thats a simple guide but you mite need to experiment around. when i played around with flashing, the flash commands would vary between guides. anyways, most people just flash the bios to set the default clocks at their own liking (aka overclocking) but i dont recommend that. anyways, make sure u have another computer at hand in case u need to do a blind flash (where video card fails and you have to flash it back to ur original backup but cant see the screen).

zipper Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 And many manufacturers do their tricks to make the bioses unavailable - like my Asus and earlier HP/Compaq. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipper Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Embed the video bios into the system bios for instance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzpulp Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 Embed the video bios into the system bios for instance. I'm assuming you're talking about integrated cards here and not discrete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipper Posted July 10, 2010 Report Share Posted July 10, 2010 No, for instance my HP/Compaq Quadro FX 1600 has just some stub bios without any meaningful code in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
