Hi XFX 6800GT PCI-E owners!

 

I managed to totally waste the firmware on my card (long story).

 

Is there any chance that someone with a matching part number could use NVFlash to copy your original video card BIOS, and email it to me? This way I can reflash the firmware and recover the card.

 

P/N: PV-T45G-UDF3

 

Willing to make a small Paypal contribution for your time. Thanks,

Yek

Try PMing zeus_999, he seems to have 2x6800GT's from XFX, but not sure which model numbers though.

Which Revision is your card? 1 or 2?

Thanks for the link, and I've PM'ed Zues.

 

Pretty sure it is Rev 2.1 (if I remember right, I will check later tonight)

 

Will probably give the v2 BIOS a shot, seems like I can't hurt anything at this point

New problem:

 

When I remove my PCI-E card I can boot to DOS using my PCI vga card. With my PCI-E card installed, it hangs with 1 LED (presumably since the 6800GT firmware is crapt). I can't do the reflash because the sys hangs when the PCI-E card is inserted.

 

In the BIOS, I have 'Display Init' set to PCI. But it still hangs. How can I force the BIOS to post using the PCI card, instead of the PCI-E?

 

TIA

Yekim,

 

Sorry for the delayed responce but I've had a few PC issues myself.

 

Are you still having a issue?
