Thats pretty sweet service CD fighter...

Has anyone tried overclocking while playing Battlefield Bad Company 2?

 

Hi all.
The fx 3700m is a funky card

HP 8730w USERS: VERY IMPORTANT INFO!!!

A. If you have a card made for the later "...10" vbios, your card can be flashed to a GTX 280m and will work 100% at 1.05v!
B. If you do NOT have a card made for this vbios (they usually have a sticker below the core) then you cant flash it to a gtx 280m (until we further modify it) BUT you CAN flash it to the newer ".10" vbios which will overclock in a remarkably more stable fashion!

I can upload the .10 vbios stock or overvolted and overclocked to gtx 280m speeds, if anyone is interested. The stock one can be found somewhere in the 8730w owners lounge at NBR. The 1.05v option does not show in nvidia bios editor, so i had to copy some bits and bytes to do it but it will pass 3dmark06 with flying colors at about 13.4k (with a good CPU)

The reason it crashes however is failed 'direct3d9 vertexlock' and this will still happen in some games. The driver will also recover for me in game. just have to be careful and not look at too many things...

 

I am an hp 8730w user.
How exactly do I tell which version of vbios I have? Can you explain it in noob terms.

 

Hmm the nvidia control panel says I have video bios version 62.92.51.00.05
Is there any hope? If so are there any guides for noobs I can follow?
