I just picked up two of these cards last night and was having temperature issues.  I flashed the bios, but could not get the control unlocked...still stuck at 1.2v.  Would you mind sharing your method for unlocking it?

Thank you!

I use VBE7 to change the bios settings and then use ATIwinflash to flash it to the card, though I put by bios 'pin' in position 2 beforehand.

Though I couldn't unlock it to have another program change it, i have to flash it everytime i want to change the voltage.

Hope this helps Smiley))

**PS. Make sure you know what your doing when messing with graphics cards bios', you don't want a $400 paperweight....
