Hi folks,

..or to softmod any other "GeForce 7" card with NV47 (a.k.a "G7x") chips into Quadros, is not possible.

Hi guys, I need a little help here. I've got an MSI TI4200 which I've soft-quadroed in the past without problem. It may have been with an older version of Riva Tuner and a different driver set and XP SP1 as opposed to XP SP2. I've Been following the instructions here and have attempted this several times with the same results - it becomes a 700XGL in name only. One of the issues is "Use ROM straps for PCI DeviceID programming" being grayed out so I've skipped it when getting to it. Apparently, it's not available in the GF4 cards according to this thread:

Is there anything else that could be affecting this? Like I said, I've done this in the past without issue so I know it's possible with my card. I don't get the extra tabs in display settings where you can select the OpenGL settings and apps being used, Maya, in this case. Any guidance would be appreciated.

I have an old word doc on how to soft quadro so maybe I'll try that method and see how it fares. I just wasn't sure how much in RivaTuner had changed.

EDIT: Nevermind...after the gazillionth time, I finally got it working...really had to go through and clean everything...system, registry, etc. to get back to basics.
