Does anyone konws why my card starts throttling down to 350MHz during benchmarking?
Anyone knows a solution?
Thanks. My 6800Ultra bios is slightly newer, 05.40.02.10.00 and dated May 21 2004. I'd be happy to email it out if anyone wants it. I know there's newer versions out now, anyone have a newer bios?Quote:

I think it means the card or the driver doesnt use 2D/3D Profiles.
You have a 6800?
Do you find 5E01 in near of a F401 in your BIOS?Quote:

My card is a 6800ultra from MSI but with reference design and even liveupdate doesn't recognise it like an MSI...
If I use nvflash 4.41 I can't flash because it says to me that there is no nvidia adapter in the system (too old for the kind of eeprom of the 6800?) but that's work's fine with 4.46 if PCI vendor and PCI ID are the same... I've more recent bios but from gainward and point of view and I can't flash it using 4.46 (no options to ignore PCI ID and 4.41 with this option doesn't works :( )
Could you tell me where PCI vendor and PCI device are identified in order to mod the bios and allows me to flash with 4.46?
thks
PS: don't find 5E01 near F401
I found on the net nvflash 4.42 and that's works with the command -p -u y to ignore different vendor and PCI device! I used bios 5.40.02.10.14 (6800uv3.rom in the zip file) from Point of view and modded it in order to allows +0,1v in 3d mode. Amazing the defaut clock for the GPU with this bios is 425mhz (I don't change anything...) The TV out works fine although the brand is different, very good!

I'll try with Gainward bios even more recent as soon I've it. In the zip file the nvflash version version is 4.42.
Is the PointOfView BIOS for the 6800 Ultra or GT?Quote:

I would need the 6800 Ultra BIOS.
Thanks in advance,

For the ultra ;)
I've got the new 6800 Ultra bios, version 5.40.02.10.13. It's dated 06/15/04. I've been playing around with it, and it's as easy to mod the frequencies and voltage as the old bios. I've also got the new nvflash version 5.08. Can anyone host these? I'd be happy to email them to whoever would like them until they get hosted by someone.
On a related note, I've got a question about the core voltage measuring point from LardArse's vr-zone article. When I measure the voltage I just see the 3D value all the time, rather than the lower value for 2D. Is this normal? I expected to see 1.1V for 2D changing to 1.4 or 1.5V for 3D. Here's LardArse's picture:
Update, never mind on the voltage, I see from LardArse's early posts in this thread that he sees the same voltage whenever the drivers are loaded. I'll have to check the voltage when I'm not in the OS.
I wonder why 5.40.02.10.13 (06/15/04) is most recent than 5.40.02.10.14 (06/01/04) Could you send this bios by mail please. (You've got a PM );)Quote:

I'm disappointed because I can't find the offset that set the 3d frequencie. With bios 5.40.02.10.14, 2D frequencie is 400mhz so the value 9001 is the same at the same place but in 3D the frequencie is 425 so I think I must find 6110 (425 is 1061 in hexa) and I don't find it :(
I've sent a set of files to Stylist and rycky. I think one of them will host the files so they can be downloaded. I've included the addresses of the locations of the voltage and frequency values that can be changed.
The value you want is A901->01A9=425 decimal.Quote:

Check your email for the files. I've included all the address offsets.
I jope one of them get's it done pretty soon, I'm sitting here and trying to flash this damn card.
First time I flashed a bios which doesn't boot...
Here the great file from bmg: http://rycky11.free.fr/Forum_Hardware/6800u13.zip
my ultra bios is 5.40.02.03.00, I assume this is quite old..? anyone know?
The Ultra Bios doesn't work on the 6800GT.Quote:

Anyone knows how to change the BIOS values to fix the problem:
"...ID mismatch..."

It's the first reease of the bios very old ;)Quote:

You can use nflash 4.42 with -p -u parameters in order to ignore this message. Be carreful you should have a PCI card in security if the ultra bios isn't ready for gt. I think it is but be carreful.Quote:

With version 4.46 the parameters doesn't work.
Thank in advance,

Since you guys have looked at these bios' codes, r there major differences? Worth flashing with newer? Does the UltraExtreme bios set the core temp thresh at 130c or does it remain at 125c like the Ultra? GT= 120c. Thanks guys. By the way can someone explain "light pencil job" a little differently, or add perspective for noob? Much obliged.
Would anybody mail me a moddet 6800GT Bios?
1.5 Volt @ 3D mode
I wasn't able to do it myself. :(

In this zip file you 'll find nvflash version 4.42 ;)Quote:

Make a backup of your bios file in order to mod it. When it's done PM me and I give you my mail to send the file.Quote:

Hi,
i was try to mod my PNY 6800 GT Bios the way you describe here but unfortunately it didnt worked.I was trying to change the voltage for 3d.On my card it is 1.3V that i measured on the back of it.I changed the value according the picture posted here but the voltage stayed the same even i put the value for 1.5v.I used the Nvidia Bios Editor from Ray Adams to open the bios and changed with the integrated Hex-Editor the value.Any clue why it didnt worked?
thx
edit: maybe if someone can mod it for me i would be very thankful.Please do 1.4V for 3D since the default by my GT is 1.3V and further as 1.4 i dont wont to go! thx!
here the original PNY Verto 6800GT Biosfile: PNYGT_BIOS
crozet, use this Ultra bios.
It goes to 425 in 3D / 400 2D.
VGPU @ 1.42V.
I'm using it too. :)
remove txt first.
Sweet im gonna flash mine with that. Now i just need to figure out how to backup my BIOS...Quote:
