4. Reboot to DOS bootable disk, flash using command "nvflash -4 BIOSNAME.rom"
5. Reboot. That's it.

It seems to have worked, happily ATItool testing core @ 756/1836 (which has locked up once or twice for me before in 3D06.

edit: spoke too soon maybe? Perhaps it's the cooler temperatures. 771MHz core artifacted in ATItool right away, no crash or anything though.

edit2: 771MHz core is going fine with shaderclock bumped down to 1782... temp 55°C with stock cooler, fan @ 100%
edit3: 771MHz went fine in ATItool for 30minutes so I've stopped it, bumped core to 777mhz and retried. So far good for 10 minutes.
and, this modification resolve the 30% fan speed problem?
