27th August 2006, 07:34

after do some research i'm ready to flash my graphic card bios and i have to buy a new floppy drive.
1> i download the component NVflash and NiBiTor this program NVflash used to make backup and flash the bios while NiBiTor used to edit the bios setting.
2>i format the disket like this.

3>i copy the cwsdpmi and nvFlash file to the floppy drive and then restart the computer and boot using floppy drive and backup the bios type A:\nvflash -b (your file name).rom and edit the rom file using NiBiTor first i set the core 400\500 like this

and save the file rename it whateve you want but must remember the file name.

Flashing>boot using floopy and type A:\nvflash (input file name).rom and press "y" to confirm when done flashing restart the computer.
but i can went go through windows the windows lockup at logon screen i think this is because of overheathing problem because the system freeze first and then the cursor freeze.
again using NiBiTor on safe mode i changed the clocks to 370\500 and flash it succed the system stable at this
clocks but went throught my artifacts when playing games so i put the memory clock at 498 yes no artifacts when playing game.
before flashing the bios i using coolbits or rivaturner for overclocking my graphic card core but only get 366\498 stock 350\400 but with flashing the bios i get the core 370\498 if i raise the memory clock to 500 it result to many artifact this is my new stock core havent try to overclock it yet.good luck when flashing.

I actually managed to flash my 7800GT without a floppy drive. I was looking for some bootdisk solution and IIRC I used Flash CD (from www.bootdisk.com) and edited it with UltraISO. Of course this was flash only, no backingup.

BTW, I just used RivaTuner to OC the hertz and not the actuall BIOS file.

what can be the cooler for my 6200?

Cooler? At 43C? LMAO You don't need a cooler. Infact, your probably not going to need one even when your into heavy gamming. Keep the temp monitor open and start playing a high end 3d game, and after 5 minutes or so, exit it and check the temps recorded. My stay around 60-70C so there is nothing to worry about.

EDIT: That is unless you have a case window or something and you want to add a LED cooler to make it look kool
