sorry i can't understand you too well. for what i can read you have a 9800se softmodded card and flashed it with a 9800se bios and modified clock values (380/340). you want to reflash it with a 9800pro bios and want to know if it could be a problem the different memory brands? did i understand ok? first you must know that flashing your card with a different model/brand bios will brake your warranty so be sure that both are compatible (google is a nice friend). different memory (or a different speed) will seriously damage your card! make sure is the same memory brand and the same response time. what to do when you flashed your card with a wrong bios? you need a pci card (i used my old 2mb card from my 200mmx ), unplug the agp (damaged card). start your pc and set as your primary graphic the pci one and shut down. re-plug your agp card and restart then reflash with the correct bios and power off. unglug your pci card. that's all, hope it helps

Updates: APE, NFO, DIZ and PK3 extensions added @DigeratiPrime, thanks

i think official catalyst aren't crappy, but all the configs are set to default so if you are an advanced user or an overclocker you 'need' to know more or 'need' to go further that's why every1 should search for alternatives.

hey @Weed i really liked this one on your signature i've heard it before ... so true

well i know at least 3 different mods of catalyst and the most complete for me is the omega radeon set. if we get far we can make a comparative between different versions of the same mod so (again for me) the best is Omega's based on 4.11 (4.11 beta i think), let's see how evolves the 4.12 final.

i'm not sure about this; is annoying when you read/reply over and over the same but the first time i came here was after reading that guide and because i wanted to know more about it so wait 2 days... like XMaC said, by that time you probably have forgot the question perhaps and advertisement in the validation mail that advice you to search and read the unattended guide until posting your question

many people try to find a way to look their .NFO and .DIZ files and this post want to help... most of you will use **** NFO Viewer. it's a nice app but not for our unattended needs. you'll need to search for the .msi version of the installer (here) together with the /qb and /qn switches... today i found another nice application with the same purpose, Flyingcode NFO-Viewer 1.0. this one has more possibilities, better. it uses inno setup. nfoviewer-setup.exe /VERYSILENT /SP- /NOCANCEL i wanted to go 1 step further, you know those files are created to be viewed under DOS, we're going to do it so we don't need to waste space on our unattended cd... just add this entries in one of your command files. REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.nfo" /VE /D "ASCII" /F REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.diz" /VE /D "ASCII" /F REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\ASCII\DefaultIcon" /VE /D "%WINDIR%\system32\shell32.dll,70" /F REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\ASCII\shell\open\command" /VE /D "EDIT.COM /R /H \"%%L\"" /F REG ADD "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\ASCII\shell\edit\command" /VE /D "EDIT.COM /H \"%%L\"" /F solved a little mistake on the code. check this thread for more.

offtopic: @Yohann LeBorsch, did the guide help u?

and why don't just place it in the same folder as cmdlines.txt?

registering extensions unattended let you choice to do it from the commandline (.cmd)

@prathapml, well not "hidden or over-looked" but i'm sure most of people don't make use of them @bledd, nice advice and let me remember you can build your .cmd files and call them like .lnk files. edit.com: DOS text editor, not common on everyday use but i'm working with it on another thing...

just for curiosity i've hex edited the file and there is no mark by photoshop. this doesn't mean it wasn't edited with photoshop and then resized or edited again with a 3rd app but... let me believe the story

i can't believe what i miss... cmd.exe: launches the command prompt. you can use DOS commands from here just type cmd.exe /? for more info. explorer.exe: launches a new explorer window (win+e obtains the same result); can be combined with parameters to open a double panel window with %USERPROFILE% and so on. wmplayer.exe: runs windows media player (latest versions don't know olders).

"To be or not to be, that's the question" - Shakespeare i've got in mind many more but i don't know how they sound in english ...well there is one at the tombstone of Groucho Marx that i can remember... "Sorry, madam, but I cannot stand up" ... he was a genious, before and after his life

nice trick, i'll use it on my next date (j/k)

Here are some extensions ... Tweak Network Settings: It improves your browsing perfomance (or it is supposed to) Mozilla Calendar: A nice looking calendar for your browser Allow Right Click: Defeats the right click protection on some pages Download Status Bar: Shows your downloads on the status bar FlashGot: Nice plugin to send a file to getright, flashget, net transport... FoxyTunes: Control your player; wmp10, winamp... cutemenus: Show icons on your rightclick menu GmailNotifier: No comments ForecastFox: Displays the weather on your browser ieview: Add the entrie "open this page on ie..." ... and themes ... Apollo, Mars, Neptune, Smoke... all of them by Aaron Spuler, really good work. i'm looking for a couple of things, can anybody help me? i want to add to my fox the hability to have notes (something similar to a sticky, a note or a post-it) and i'm also looking for something that can add a close button to every tab

for testing purposes i think the best is to use DCleaner (included on this omega edition) and try it. this things can be a problem because virtual machines don't emulate too good your graphics card and the ati package won't get installed if it can't find the hardware

well, if i'm going to launch i always drink water, carbonated drinks only with fast food if i'm going out with friends generally whiskey and often martini, vodka or tequila (not so often )

there's no way by default but things you can try: complete the first setup step (until it asks to install the drivers), then check your %programfiles%\Radeon Omega Drivers\v2.5.97 Beta and try "setup.exe /K". i recieved a BSOD related to ati2cqag.dll after reboot. i think this is because the control panel is not properly installed but there must be a work around.

i'm a winamp skins' collector i have 1cd out there filled with skins on my favorites list... Aluminium Alloy, Invicta, Winamp modern and Gorilla skins and my creations... SiMoNsAyS' Sonique Amp and the Kh@os Amp (black background is transparent ) ps: i suppose someday i need to post all the things i've worked on and are outhere on the net

nice, any1 knows a final release date? how many RCs until that day?

i added previous post to the guide

i can't, m$ decides when to increse user accounts. someday you'll recive an email notification from hotmail

i find it a little kiddy, i mean how many time you spend writing "\/\/s" "|_|s" or "/\/s"? if you want something that can't be read in an easy way, why use something that closer to the alphabet? i suppose this is something from the 90's
