I finally found the first video card I ever put in a system as an upgrade. It is a radeon 9000 pro 128. I have since bought another one, but i found my old one and tried to use it. I found that upon the installation of drivers that there was something very wrong with it. upon closer inspection i noted that on the back one of the memory chips was crushed in one corner. (probably caused in storage) Now I know it would be very time consuming to repair the card, but i heard somewhere that flashing the bios of a lower memory count card (like the 64mb version) could in theory disable the bad memory chip and restore the cards functionality. My only question is, is this possible? and if so what would i have to do?
