Re: New EPROM for a PCI VGA card...?
Posted on 2021-11-14, 11:30
That's very interesting, are you willing to share both bios? Sure I'm happy to share them if I get that far - I've ordered the unit so I'll see how I go. Don't get me wrong the performance difference is tiny, but it's measurable and therefore enough to keep me up at night 😋 And that's because …

That's very interesting, are you willing to share both bios? The one with higher performance and the other? You can take the dump with nssi program. Thank you

Great, let us know the result of the test.
Re: dfi nf4 ultra-d hanging after modifying bios settings
Posted on 2021-10-19, 00:44
I got the hint that the problem may be the memory cmos (which should be inside the nforce4 chipset) went wrong, in such case the motherboard can be considered unrecoverable. I will try to populate the orange connectors tomorrow, since I was using the yellow one, but I doubt it will solve the issue. …

Unlucky we can't be sure one way or another since someone who is sure what evey pin of the sli connector does. The best guess is to hope that matze79 shows up he did great sli bridge connectors for sure he knows if a non twisted cable could give issues or if they bring voltage. My educated guess is …

Are you sure that the sli cable brings any voltage that could damage the card? I'm not sure but the floppy drives get the voltage from the berg connector, as the voodoo get the voltage from pci connectors.

No please, it's not the psu, it's a brand new, EVGA 450 BR, I use it on my cardboard test bench. As for the ram, I tried the old good Winbond BH6 and samsung TCCD. I think the problem lies in the motherboard.
dfi nf4 ultra-d hanging after modifying bios settings
Posted on 2021-10-18, 16:26
Hello fellow vogonians, I just received from ebay a lovely dfi nf4 ultra-d, not in pristine shape but still better than nothing, it was sold as working but unlucky it doesn't. The motherboard boots fine once after using the clearcmos, but when I enter the bios to change just a cosmetic setting like …

Yeah those external drivers are very cheap. I bought one from aliexpress a couple of years ago and it never worked fine, I had your very same problem. Then I found there are adapters to use the old floppy drives with usb, since then I use it without any issues with windows 10. That's interesting, …

Moving to the next track is an unexpected behaviour? Which version of warcraft 2 are you using? I will try to test it myself and see how it behaves.

Well done trying to underclock the card, if I got it right the problem lies in the gpu, try to find the maximum underclocked frequency to have it stable, then you could modify the bios with new clock speed. Another try is to use a bigger heatsink if you can, but maybe the card chip was damaged due …

I did that once (twice, once with a at psu that banged when turned on) the atx psu did the same thing as yours but all the other components were fine.

That's great, thank you!!! Mine is a S520 but I may try to crossflash. Edit: I think those cards are cursed. I used the gigabyte ga-6bxc rev 2.0 with a pentium II 400, the results where inconsistent, they were the same with stock and overclocked frequencies. So I decided to use another bx400 the msi …
