What I'm trying to achieve is to have the S-Video output display NTSC as default. Just want to test the difference.

At the moment it displays PAL.

There is a BIOS / flash chip on the card, so it should be possible.

But what flash tools are available for these old cards? Has anyone had any luck?

Is there anything here (mvktech; nVidia util files) that could be useful?

I did a search on the BIOS section for MX440, but no luck.

There are heaps of utilities, but the descriptions are very minimal. It doesn't tell me if they are for DOS, Windows or what cards are supported.

So yea I'm hoping someone might be able to tell me what program supports changing some of the BIOS settings on a Geforce MX440.

I dont know what EEPROM the MX440 has but nvflash has a nice list of supported EEPROMS in the readme. I'd just download 5.77 (is there a newer one?) and check if your one is among the supported ones.

pm37lv...seems you're outta luck here. One of the few flash EEPROMs that are not supported by any of the popular tools... nVflash, WFflash and Uniflash don't support this one and i also dont know of any other tool that does. I'd say with this one you're gonna have a hard time, if you can then just pick something else for flashing.
