You shouldn't ned the flash... I have seen screenshots where the card was still recognized as a pro but had 16 pipes.Quote:

Lol this is amazing. Great job you xtreme SOBs. Im just going to get the X800XT and save the trouble ;)
NOOOO!!! How can you just lose 4 pipes... there are like huge long circular thingies!!!! Did someone come over your place with spanners and bolt removal tools???
You guys are something special. Oppainter, Hope you can find those 4 parallel pipelines back! LOL
conductive material probably never had time to dry ;)
storm - did you scrape the top of the contact points first to make sure you had a good contact?
good job my man
Obviously not good enough. Will try again in the morning. I'm pretty sure this is going to work. It's just very difficult because the whole thing is so damn small.:mad:Quote:

what can you use as a conductive material??
OPP and I use this conductive ink that comes in a pen type of dispenser. It works well most of the time but it's kinda thick and dries very fast. We'll get it though I think. We just have to clean the pads really well and after the inking we need to allow sufficient dry times.Quote:

Cheers!:toast:
Darn... Now im thinkin about gettin a pro :D Hehe...
Im gonna follow this thread very closely :D
Why dont u just smolder a copper wire so that there is 200% contact...
But... Where is it exactly??? Its just righ of the vore isnt it???
Man from the looks of it I would think it would next to impossbile to line up a really small wire on those tiny contact points. I am sure some one with uber 1337 skillz will do it soon though?
whats that red line between the 2 dots???
I think i could smolder a copper wire in there... Thin handy fingers are always great :P
Offtopic: Metallica are you gonna se Metallica on their europe tour?? I saw them 2 days ago in denmark(Home of Lars Ulrik the drummer) Darn that was great!!!
Edit: Any1 know for sure if X800pro/xt cores are under or over the shim??? I hate removing that thing... Cut my last card with the hobby knife...
Is it true you can use dental flos???
I think you have to use the conductive ink to connect those two dots???sp?
that red line connecting the 2 dots is where you are supposed to connect...Quote:

as for metallica.... i saw them back in march when they were in Los Angeles!
So the red light is something they drew up in paint or whatever??? Hehe... Was just thinkin that must look wierd if its actually onthe card... :o
back to the XP unlocking days...it was so easy to unlock these cpu them days...did quite a few with success with the first try....
still got some conductive paint...i am going for the XT though....
does the Xt have a faster memory than the PRO or are they the same?
Dafault XT should have 550Mhz for the ram while the PRO only has 450Mhz
2 NS on the pro, 1.6 NS on the XT
kunaak u get urs all painted up yet?
I tried twice.
it didn't work for me.
I need to get some real conductive ink pens or something.
all I have is a old kit I bought for Xps and its been sitting in a box for about a year now unused.
I guess its no good anymore.
you first have to go to real dos and flash it to the xt bios, THEN do the connecting
I know.
