Gtx 1080 spi programmer driver#
Now open the attached flasher pack that was compiled by a cool guy on youtube (not my work) but yeah run those 2 driver programs and click install. Plug in the ribbon cable (it only goes in one way) and there you have it the adapter is set up (with the usb facing away from me the chip has numbers 1-4 on the right side and 5-8 on the left side appearing upside down. Lift the little lock handle up, and place the green pcb in place in the 8 holes closest to the usb header oriented as mine is in this picture. In order to do this you need to spend 20 dollars, (10 for the bios flasher, and 10 for the amazing solderless bios clip) read my story above to find the amazon links, or just look up (CH341A and get the one thats like all black) along with the (CTYRZCH SOIC8 SOP8 Flash Chip IC Test Clips Socket Adpter Programmer BIOS/24/25/93).īE SURE THE YELLOW JUMPER ON THE FLASHER IS IN THAT POSITION OR IT WONT SHOW UP WHEN PLUGGED IN TO THE COMPUTER you flash the card outside of the system and on the bios chip directly. You can flash and reflash and reflash, the card doesn't need power to actually get flashed. With this method there is almost no fear of bricking anything. So I think its got physical damage some wear. I was sad to find out that my HD 7970 is still dead, I used the read function and found out it was never the bios on that card to begin with, the flash was fine. I flashed my hd 6450 with random nvidia bios's just to troll my friend a bit.

same with my gt 220, I didn't test them though. I flashed my gt 430 to a higher clocked gt 430. I tried flashing my evga ssc gtx 560 ti to a 560 ti boost, it didn't post, next I tried one of the zotac very overclocked bios's and it made a pretty rainbow on the screen but almost worked. IT doesnt work the xfx hd 7870 bricks if you flash any r9 bios to it. I flashed my XFX hd 7870 to an r9 270, and r9 270x, - TO kinda put this rumor to bed. I then spent the rest of the afternoon and the whole night loving the fact that with the bios flasher I can literally reprogram the bios chips as many times as I want.

These flashers happen to work great on video cards.Īfter receiving the programmer with clip extension I watched some interesting videos of guys with thick accents try to explain how to use the flasher.

(Graphics cards use the same vbios chips that many companies like Lenovo use as their bios chips, so there is a big market for bios flashers like these for computer bios modders, and Bios password unlocker guy things. While waiting for the bios to ship I bought this bios flasher:Īnd I bought this solderless 8 pin bios programming clip extension So I did the next best logical thing, I paid a guy in Taiwan 20 bucks to flash a bios chip of the same model number with the daimond 7970 bios and send it to me so I could use my heatgun and solder the new chip to the board. and the card just wouldn't show up in the computers bios or in ati flash. I have shorted out pins 4+5, 8+1 etc etc. I went further than a lot of people think of going when it comes to these bad flashes. So It all started when I bought a dead 7970 off ebay, I couldn't find anything wrong with it, so naturally I assumed because it was a DAIMOND hd 7970 (Reference card) it may have a bad bios flashed onto both bios's. Is it really possible to flash any bios you want without bricking your card? CAN WE FINALLY LEAVE DOS BOOTABLE FLADH DRIVES BEHIND!? YES YES YES YES. So what is this magical new way of flashing you ask? How does it work you ask? How many flash-drives do I need to reformat to flash my card? I have tested this and it is working with an AMD HD 7970, AMD HD 7870, Nvidia gt 220, Nvidia gt 430, AMD HD 6450, and I'm sure pretty much any other card would work too as long as you can find the vbios chip and its an 8 pin chip on the gpx card.
