LOL do what ther rest of us have hehe. Over in the Rage3d forum "Tweakers
Tweaking & Overclocking " (think thats right) there is a thread over 20
pages long on how if you have Samsung memory 3.3 on the card to simply flash
it with the pro bios there is a link to and Viola you have a pro running at
pro speeds. If its go infinion(read inferior) memory then you wont be as
happy with the flash. Also if your card uses 2.8 mem instead of 3.3 most
have said better just to OC and not flash those. Read this thread and decide
for self, heres a linkto it hopefully wordwrap wount break it but if does
just cut n paste it all into browser window:

If you do it I HIGHLY recommend backingup the old bios first , that info is
also in the thread

Cheers

It's a known driver 'issue' but not really incorrect (can't remember a

link,
but it's on Radeon forums everywhere), a non-pro is hardware identical
except for clock speeds and the rating of the RAM. Your default clock

speed
is the way to tell if it's a non-pro.

BTW, what do you think of the card? I'll be getting a 9800 non-pro

shortly.

I have a machine with a 9800 Non-Pro. In the device manager it read:

"9800
series".
After i upgraded to WinXPPro and Catalyst 3.7 drivers it now says: "9800
Pro"?
The speed is set to 325/294,25 = Non-Pro, but I have no problem what so

ever
running the card at 378/340 via Rage3D Tweak?


Question to you 9800 Non-Pro owners:
Can someone with a 9800 Non-Pro card please answer what your device

manager
reads?!
