|  X800Pro to X800 XT hardmod I got a new baby, a sapphire X800 Pro, and it ended up under the soldering iron less then 5 hours later. However, I don't get the 16 pipelines it ATi tool. I still need to upgrade the bios but that shouldn't prevent me from seeing them. I used to have a good website with a nice howto for the hardmod, but with all the other ****, I can't find it anymore in google. Can anyone give me some help on the subject. (websites with howto, and bios downloads. Tnx. |

| owke tried the bios flashy thingie, but it's the wrong bios. When I install this one, it asks for WDM drivers, but this isn't a vivo card. When I install these drivers, me PC just reboots during the install process (when it shouldn't) I need the bios for the regular card. |

| you have to mod the files, so it doesn't install those drivers. then disable de VIVO part in Windows, that what I read on xtreme).

| the fact remains that the bios is for a vivo edition, and I can't help but wonder if that doesn't create any problems. the pipelines remain dead, but the core/mem speeds are updated perfectly. Oh and I'm 99.9% sure it's a *.1 core. I'll resolder and try some other things once I get home. |

| man, I can only dream about that card (or buy it) and you allready want to mod it  actually a bit crazy. So I like it  . But I advise you to stop trying if it doesn't work, don't screw up such a nice card. BTW, why you want to mod it? good scores at benchmarks? or playing games even better? |
