Dont know if its possible Ndawg, but I'm on another journey sort of similar. I've just posted this and if I can do it it'll solve time and money for secure overclocking (temperature monitoring).

Yes, you can do this. First solution is to use Rivatuner to patch the detonator drivers to give you full OpenGL support for Quadro2MXR, what is identical with a geforce2mx. Other solution is finding 2 Resistors on your board for changing the device ID of your video card. For a wide range of Geforce 2 MX boards it is R123 to R124 and R121 to R122. Your board must have the reference layout from nvidia to use this soldering solution.<br>

So you have modified your card? Sure you can flash your card with a ELSA Synergy Bios, but you need change the frequencies for your card. For example the ELSA Synergy III has 200MHz for core and 183MHz for memory and most Geforce 2MX cards have 175MHz core and 167MHz memory, I flashed my ELSA Gladiac MX with Synergy III bios it is possible as ong as it is the right BIOS-chip. Make sure that your bios is working with vgabios.exe in DOS-mode, restart to windows98 and run some benchmarks. After this, use nvflash to put it on your card. If you experience problems drop me a line for the frequencies you wanna have and write down your email, I will send you the stuff.<br>
