ok going to try that tomorrow
dab a spot of superglue (or epoxy - apply with pin or toothpick) on the laserlock, press a needle or razor blade against the exposed copper points, then put a good dot of conductive paint on top.
Should insure proper connection and keep the conductive material out of the laserlock and be easier than what we have been trying.
Actually I know OPP and I both did that...it didn't help. Did yours work that way? I don't recall reading that anywhere in the posts I have seen.Quote:

If your card is good it will work. If not you're :banana: 'ed like the rest of us.:D
If I had one i'd try ;)
I was just going by what I used for locked palomino and XP processors that was easier than trying to paint them and such.
Us too but it's not the same thing as it turns out.Quote:

like the name if your site BioBlade, nice and appropriate
i have tested it , still 12 pipes , nu i have scratched the hole line between the 2 points and done the mod again , i am going to test it know ,
could i see the 16 pipes enabled @ x800pro or should i flash it to x800xt bios ?
Pipes should show immediately, but card will not function as an XT 100% until you flash the BIOS and reload the driver.Quote:

i sure hope this will work, its a pitty that it doesnt work the most off the time... Maybe the pipes will only work if they all work(sounds vage i know), and if one doesnt work correctly maybe ati made it in a way that nuthin will go trough any of them. I think this because of the fact that that with the 9500 mod it did work every time, but sometimes the pipes were damaged, this hasn't occured yet right?? strange...
Maybe ati's production process hasnt matured enough, and only very little cards have these 16 working pipes.
Anyone tried to mod a PowerColor x800pro yet??
I hope it's the same as I am a proud owner of a new x800pro...
So can we get a list of the brands that are able to mod??
Oh well, 11,044 ain't bad for a 3.13Ghz P4/XMS3500/Max3 combo...
Cheers,
Minnyboy
mm i got the same problem like opptainer , still dropping back to 12 pipes , at least with the xt bios i got a slicht performance boost ,

with stock cooling i am doing 565core en 590 on the mem now :cool:
so at least i am still happy :toast:
beautiful guide but I can't read a thing and babelfish won't translate the page due to errors....
someone from the Netherlands succesfully did the mod on an Asus X800PRO
He doesn't have any pics of it, but posted a screenshot from ATI tool @ gathering.tweakers.net
http://www.heyz.nl/pics/ati.jpg
His 3DMark03 score increased from 8800 points to 11300 points
His card has a fillrate of 7254 so it must be a full XT
ah ok, now I got it.
seems like every card except powercolors x800pro can be modded!

oh this is mind warping.
Seems that you either get a card that can be modded, or you don't. Driving me nuts, cause I would order a pro if i knew i could mod it to xt, but i would rather just buy an xt if my pro wount mod over, arg.
think alot of you will find the following article very helpful....

explains which cards can and cant be modded
