Hi,
so I followed this (http://www.appr07.dsl.pipex.com/Ati/Ati2.htm) guide and flashed my video card using a gigacube special bios.
the card in question is a powercolor 9800NP, loads of other people where I found out about this have flashed successfully.
Well it seemed to flash then I got an error,
it said -
Error: Timeout: timeout, ROM module idle on flashing
so I tried to force flash, it said it couldnt find the 9800. Reboot, beep noise to tell me no gcard is there.
What exactly has happened? I cant send the gcard back as Ive tampered with it?
It should be able to flash perfectly fine due to having samsung ram on it etc, like everyone else who flashed.
What did I do wrong?
I need replies asap, thanks ppl.
