I just backed up my BIOS, looking for a 9500 bios to try the flash. I'm digging out an old PCI card just in case its dosn't work, some feed back of others who have tryed would save be the pain .... of failure.

thanks
mac

You're doing what?!

Flashing a 9000 with a 9500 BIOS?! Dude if that works, I'm gonna try taking my 7500 to 8500 level I don't think you should do the flash tho. I really don't.

Why not try the 9000 PRO bios? The 9500 is a completely different card based on a different chip. 9000 = R250 and 9500 = R300
