i have 5.43.02.36.52 bios now and im finding newer or better...

you can use savebios for a copy, and I could mod it for you.

[Verdict]

there is my bios, look at that

is there anything you need me to do to the bios

raise voltage

[[XC] moddolicous]

to 1.4 or 1.5? Any card clocks locked or no?

I dont know whats the normal voltage on that card, but clocks can be default
I rise those with power strip... you can change voltages???

What is safe on stock cooling?

[[XC] moddolicous]

Verdict, what are the stock speeds of the 6600GT. I am getting a weird reading from hex workshop. I think 1.4 is safe on stock cooling, but I'm not sure

What card do you have?
Check www.mvktech.net for more BIOS's :-)
And mail yours to mavke@mvktech.net as he might have more BIOS's!

i have PNY 6600GT, i take rev2 bios from your site for my card but it says " image and card ID not match "

can i force it, i have AGP card, is that for it?

[Mavke]

Yeps it for the AGP... And you are not using the correct nvflash parameters I think.
So you better try : And use nvflash v4.42...
nvflash -r (removes any protection)
nvflash -b ORIGBIOS.ROM (saves original bios)
nvflash -u -p -f BIOSNAME.ROM (flash new bios file)

However because of DOS filename restriction, "ORIGBIOS.ROM" and "BIOSNAME.ROM" must have max of 8 char's in first part of filename and max of 3 char's in extender part, otherwise DOS will not recognise command.

its not workin

i tried 4.42 and 4.46, those says: nvidia display adapters not found...
then i test 5.06, 5.10 and 5.12
and not working, i use command : nvflash -6 -5 bios.rom "with 5.?? versions"

[Mavke]

What command did you exactly use?
And did you boot up from a DOS bootable diskette?
(And also check my site we have some specialists to help you get the flash working...)

Current version of nvflash is screwed for 6600GT. Maybe the programmer is just plain dumb or remove the override function on purpose. You can no longer over ride current BIOS with another vendor's BIOS. Even if you use -5 and -6 which are overridetype and overridesub, the software still checks for a match and it will tell you board ID mismatch.

I just wonder why can nvflash function the same as ATI's flashrom utility, just use a single -f to force flash the card regardless of ID mismatch? *sigh*

thats right, im little ****** up, ATI rox

[Verdict]

any idea?
still waiting

just info, stock clocks r mostly 500/900 or 1000 (set it to 1000Mhz coze all memory is 2ns or 1.6ns) & stoc k voltage is 1.4V, so if ya can set it set it to 1.5 or 1.6V pls

Verdict, I finally got around to modding your bios. Here it is. Its stock clock speeds with 1.4V for both 3d and 2d speeds. They were originally set to 1.3. It should match.

Can you tell me which make your vid card is. I'll be more than happy to mod it for you, just tell me what you want me to do.

On Mavke's site, that is a Rev. A01 BIOS (for the PNY Verto 6600 GT AGP). I uploaded the A02 BIOS 5.43.02.39.51 to his site on Dec. 30 for the same card, but Rev. A02 as evidenced by these pictures showing revision at top left when looking at the fan side. Verdict might want to look at the Rev on his PCB to see what his Rev. is.

Is there any chance you can Mod this newer BIOS for me as well?

you use this bios?

http://whitebunny.demon.nl/download?...3.02.36.52.zip

i can flash your modded bios. id mismatch error or something

[[XC] moddolicous]

wait, you can flash my modded bios or not?

edit

Download savebios, and get a copy of your current bios. I'll mod it then give it back to you.

[MaRtIe]

what can you do to them? i have a 6600GT... maybe thinking of moded bios. dunno yet

You could raise the voltages so you can acheive higher OC's, but only on the core. You could make your 3d clocks and your 2d clocks the same to get rid of the cold throttling.

If you use the one I originally modded for verdict, that one has 1.4v, and clocks are 500/900. Thats should be what you are looking for.

[MaRtIe]

would you be willing to add more voltage to my XfX6600GT?
