try this one bios editor. it even corrects the checksum

nice find again zeneffect i wonder if this lets you set a higher voltage than 1.35 on gpu core, does winflash work with these cards i have always used atiflash through a floppy on dos

p.s i see you've upped the clocks to over 900 on your pros now ,nice going, i can run my xts at 900 core on 3dmarks except 06 which i have to turn down to 874, thats with 1.35 volt on h20

I haven't had these problems; I guess you have bad luck or something. Anyway, you seem very driven by something, and I hope you can get this all worked out, and I hope to see more of this kind of work. I must admit, this is entertaining

@ glenboy

the bios editor was posted in the 2900 PRO owners thread by road-runner
i suggest you guys check that thread out if you have not already since the xt and pro are the same card.
also
it seems bios does not support above 1.35 *ive set it to 1.4 bios but rivatuner always reads it back as 1.35*
and ive been using winflash primarily because i dont have to make a disk, reboot with a boot cd and all that other garbage

@ superdank

thanks! the need for more 3dmarks is what is driving me to push my cards further and further. i do not experience the 900+ memory bug with the new drivers as im using a 6 pin and 6 pin instead of a 8 and 6 like i used to. im assuming you are using the same thing having not experienced any of the problems we have been running into here... anyways, see what you started? thanks for all your work to kick this all off!

btw i will have to run the 2900's on a isolated loop it seems as my idle temps went from 33 to 38... after playing cod4 for a few hours idle goes to 48 but cools down to 38-39 after 10 min or so... not something i am comfortable with.

my plan is
thermochill 240mm rad for cpu *dont know exact model off hand, will have to research*
use existing 240mm bix for gpu's
use 120mm bix for my girlfriend's computer *to upgrade a nautilus 500 external*

let you all know in 2 weeks when i can afford the parts!

Anyone try'd the 8.3 drivers yet?..
Im too scared to install

[GLENBOY]

yes with zeneffects inf fix work ok no performance improvement i've noticed

im actually considering dropping the water cooling portion to my cpu and having it exclusively for the gpu's. phase change seems to be what i want on cpu
