Default video BIOS


How would I, if I neede/wanted to, update the video bios on an old card?
Can it be done?
Flashing firmware?
Is there a video firmware site?

TIA

Default Re: video BIOS

there are sites that do bios flash information and utilities for video
cards. voodoofiles for 3dfx and rage3d for ati are a couple. but the chances
of wrecking the card are greater than when bios flashing a motherboard and
generally makes no differance anyway. if its overclocking
youre after try a program like powerstrip instead - its safer.

It depends on what card you have you know!
