ASUS Extreme AX1650 PRO AGP, facing problem with drivers? - 2007/12/15 14:32
Hi to all, I recently bought an ASUS Radeon AX1650 PRO 256MB card and I don't enjoy this damn graphics card, because it's full of errors. The problem, which bug's me most is the inability to install any official Catalyst driver. Yes, you heard right. If I install a Catalyst driver then, after the reboot, it looks a bit like the whole memory is corrupted and/or errors and the whole screen flashes. No, the card is not bad and/or damaged. In short terms, this is the worst graphics adapter I've ever had!
I've uploaded the BIOS of the ASUS Radeon AX1650 PRO, because I'll try everything to get this damn card working. I would even try to install a BIOS of another brand if the chance is higher then fifty-fifty that the card is working after the flash. I'm desperate... Any help, suggestion or a BIOS to try? The closest BIOS I've found, would be the Sapphire Radeon X1650 PRO BIOS, AGP also with 256MB of memory. So, set the clock speed of the memory to 800MHz and try it?
The greatest problem of the Sapphire BIOS, it's written for the 71c6 (RV530 XT2) and not for the 71c1 (RV535 XT), which I'd need... Also, is there a Radeon X1650 PRO reference BIOS from ATI available? Yes, I know, that RaBiT says, that the BIOS backup is damaged, wrong CRC, but I've tried three times with the newest ATIFlash. Maybe that's the cause of this messed up graphics card. No ASUS, I'm sorry I definitely don't get an ASUS anymore... ASUS Extreme AX1650 PRO 256MB AGP Edition - Bus Type : AGP - Memory : 256MB
