Hi guys,

I tried running atiflash by the gui and it did not work--said something about bad subsystem id. Recommendations on the net said to use dos utility.
So I tried command line. Before flashing I ran atiflash -i

adapter bn dn fn dID asic flash romsize test bios p/n

I was worried when I saw that the test failed on 0. Then I realized that card 0 has micron memory. Is this normal? Does it mean it cannot be flashed?

What card you are trying to flash with what bios ? Did you modded your own bios ? Or trying to flash with some bios you dowloaded from the internet ?
The only way you make sure you are flashing the right bios is :
Save your bios file for each cards you have , mod them , and flash back the modded bios .
If you are downloaded some junk from the internet , make sure the downloaded bios file version is the same what you have on your cards !
If you flashing the your cards with the wrong bios , you can brick your cards !!! ROM files are not interchangeable, same cards from same manufacturer can have a different bios version / different memory ...

There is a example for a bad flash ...

Hi,

Hi,

I tried to flash the second card with my own mod''d BIOS'. It is too risky to use someone else's--I agree with you there.
I used ATIWINFLASH and it said bad system ID--I assume that means it could not flash. When I googled it on the internet the recommendation was to use command line.
That's when I got the results posted above. So can I download the BIOS using atiflash.exe, make a copy of it, mod the copy, and force the mod'd bios on the first?
Appreciate the help you guys giving me.
