Thankyou SO MUCH! even if it dosen't work you are my hero ;)
[edit]
Ok dont call me n00b, how do i get this thing to work on a cdrom with the flash??
My floppy drive died years ago..
OK i told nero to use the boot image and it worked (booted up on startup).. but im still getting the same problem! i think it's a problem with dos4gw.exe but could be totally wrong, i'm guessing everryone who managed the flash used a floppy?
ohh forgot something!
Take this command:
GVF11.EXE -P R80x256V.F1
This worked for me, and all 16 pipes are working! :toast:
Greetz
so you told nero to use the same image that i downloaded and put all of the gigabyte files on the cd.
And when you booted up you used that command....
Ok ill try it ;)
it didn't work :( i get the same error!
did you put the gigabyte files inside the image? or put them on the disk with nero?
anyone know where to find other xt bios's. I have 2 of them right now and they both show different clocks. the one Im running right defaults to 523/573 or something like that. I have no problems at those speeds im just wondering if there are any more. Like the GeCube x800xt bios or saphire!
Does this not work ?

No because i don't have a floppy drive anymore lol, i think this is the problem!
If someone would make me an .iso, .bin or anything simmilar in a program like WinISO I would be verry greatful:stick:
The card is doing 550/600 without artifacts, can't wait untill i get those extra pipes unlocked.
@Shroomalistic
There's a sapphire xt bios in here i think http://www.littlebeigebox.co.uk/x800/bios_files.zip
Thanks man, Is there anyway to actually identify who's bios's they are.
This one here defaults to 526/573
I got a replacement for my faulty GeCube Vivo I mentioned earlier. The same card, just from another dealer.
With Gigabyte bios, it's currently running 560/580 core/mem with no mods :)
Anyway to get a bios with lower defult clocks? with the XT PE bios (non gigabyte) my card is sometimes locking up in windows before ati tool can load and lower the clocks...
My Powercolor X800 Pro Vivo worked perfectly. I do not know the default vgpu but i got to 540mhz with stock. It works fine :0. Thx to who figured this mod out, and this thread.
I've got the powercolour vivo, and I can't run it at the XT speeds, anymore thatn 500 core and I can only play farcry for about 30 minutes before the gpu recover thing comes on and resets the card??? are there any suggestions I can do to get the higher clocks, or should I just get a thirdparty cooler for my card
Cheers
Increase the GPU Voltage to 1.4, that should be enough for you to reach 520-530Mhz.
Does the XT have higher Vdimm than the Pro?
From what I know the gpu voltage is already 1.4 volts, I did the pencil mod and then put the multimeter on the point, and it read 1.4007, think my problem is temperature, the card idles at about 36C and under load at the XT speeds runs at about 76 - 80C
Cheers
your idle temps better than mine but your load temps are kinda high. i put as5 under the stock hsf and upped my vgpu from 1.32 to 1.42 and im idle'n around 39~40c and hitt'n 73~74c load. And i just turn off vpu recovery. it has given me nothing but trouble since they put it in.
So maybe better idea would be to flash card with original x800pro bios, and eventually raise clk with atitool, as so far i`ve observed (in my case), xt bios gives me nothing but higher clocks (i`m able anyway to run my card @500/560, regardless of which bios do i have installed, card hits the same temp and score in 3dmark as well).Quote:

Well i finally got around to pulling my heatsink off my x800pro
R420
215RADCGA11F
GB7281.1
0417AA
Taiwan
Pulled the sticker off while i was at it, x800xt design underneath it. the mem is cg-16 too.
Congrats, CodeRed. Just saw your 3DMark01 score. 33,559. :toast:

Thanks, just starting really.
This is my first ATI card so I have to learn how to tune this beast.
BTW the 16 pipe mod worked :)
only prob is now the core will only go to 550 (with 12 pipes it did 563). But volt mods and some better cooling to come :D
What clocks are you guys getting on stock voltage and stuff? Stock cooling? I was also wondering about the fan speed thing. I also noticed mine never speeds up or anything.. if it does it is only minor. It is spinning fast during boot up for about 10 seconds. Does anyone know a way to keep it spinning this fast with a bios file or something? I know that i could solder 12v to the fan if i really wanted to, but I am installing my watercooling sometime this week so it would only be temporary.
Maybe not any benefit from this, but I took some pics of the bridge area of my Sapphire x800 pro vivo. Enjoy. :)

YES, is spins that slow! As far as I have discovered, graphic card increases a voltage realted to this fan above 70deg.of c at 1,3v, than above 75 C another 1,3v (roughly), and than above 80...
seems like this step is set up to 5 degrees, bu i was wondering as well, how high would have the temp be to force card to give full 12v? (by default below 71 it is 5-5,1 v)
greets
does anyone have the x800pro bios for a powercolor card? I was stupid and forgot to backup the bios of my pro card when i flashed it to an xt. now i want to change it back to a pro.
it's the vivo version.
