Hi everyone,

I have an Asus V3800 with "Ultra" chip and 5.5ns memory. But it shows "V3800 Pro" when started.
So a few questions for community:

1) If anyone has any V3800 Ultra bios / or Nvidia TNT2 Ultra bios ?
2) How is it possible to flash it manually? Maybe some soft
3) How to save current bios version (for backup reasons)?

PS1) Maybe some advice how to reflash correctly step by step? I have never made it before
PS2) I've heard about "Dos4GW" or "TNTEdit" or "Nvidia Flash" on old year 2000 websites but no working links - should i use them?
PS3) Should i use Asus bios or just general Nvidia TNT2 Ultra bios?
PS4) maybe there are database of all old vga bios?

Thanks a lot for any information.

Although difference between Pro and Ultra can be easily fixed with manual overclocking.

I must be some kind of standard: the anonymous gangbanger of the 21st century.

According to this txt file: http://ftp.tekwind.co.jp/pub/asustw/vga/agp/v3800/index.txt
BIOS for ultra version is here: http://ftp.tekwind.co.jp/pub/asustw/vga/agp/v … 800/38u-213.exe
(this is windows exe - all necessary files are inside, I suggest to run it in Windows 9x)
