I tried both of those and a lot of other modded XT bios. None of them seems to work. Is there anything I can do to make it run? I have the R350 Hynix 2.8.

Well silly me, I just realised I'm supposed to do Ctl-Alt-Del after the flash and not hit the reset button. Maybe thats the reason. Other than that, I have no clue. I'm just sitting here in envy watching all my mates flashing their cards :(
Does flashing your card a lot causes damage?

well u need a R360 core on your 9800pro, it won't work if u got a R350 core (test battle of proxycon, trolls lair in 3dm03 - u will geht gfx corruption with a r360 bios on a r350 card)
and btw, after a flash there's no difference between ctrl + alt + entf or pushing reset.
and no it causes no damage at all if u got a pci card and the original bios

Well I've tried so many bios to date that I have lost count. I tried R350 and R360 bios, HIS and CLub3D bios, samsung memory bios, gicube bios, I've tried them all. None seem to work apart from my original bios. I dont understand why my card doesnt seem to be able to flash to any other bios.
Well from my experience, hitting the reset button usually means I need to install the drivers from scratch and my screen keeps going blank for a few second off and on. With alt-ctl-del, I experience no such thing and I dont need to isntall the drivers. Again this is from my experience. Probably would be different to others as I seriously think there's something wrong with my card.

your card works fine, it depends on the brand of the bios. if you flash a hercules bios and got drivers from the sapphire bios installed, it will install "new" drivers.
and what means "not working". black screen after flashing?

What I meant by not working is I get black squiggly lines when I ran 3DMark03 on Battle of Proxycon and Throll test. I did get black screens on a couple of them especially when I use samsung memory bios. I know I shouldnt mix the bios but a couple of ppl have tried it and works. I guess its hit and miss huh.
A bit out of topic but I see you have those EB rams. How do they perform? What kind of timings you have them on?

thats means u got a R350 core, sorry no luck buddy.
every mod will fail on that card
well, the EBs i got now are SH*TTY (!)
not working @230 @ 2.9v -> prime error -> lol
but they perform quite nice, ~150mb more than "normal" memory at the same speed
I got a gigacube with infineon ram chips...guess none of these would work for me?

Lucky you, just made a custom Infineon XT bios, only for you :D
Unlike other XT bioses, this contain lower (core: 365MHz / mem: 325MHz) clocks, because Infineon chips cant handle high speeds.
