need original bios from Hercules 9700
Ive bought a 2ndhand Hercules 9700 non-pro and the tv-out is only black and
white. The card overclocks and I suspect its been flashed with a unlocked bios and that may be resposible for the bad tv-out. Ive tried a ATI oem bios but it was rejected by Flashrom. Can someone please email the original bios so I can try it. Thanks for your help |

Read the post - its a 2nd hand card and the previous owner flashed it with a hacked bios to allow overclocking. I want to restore the card with its original manufacturers bios which will hopefully correct the Tv-out problem. Ive already phoned and emailed Hercules tech support and they promised to email me a bios but Ive had sod all from them. |

Check this guy's site http://www.mvktech.net/download.php
He has 9700NP bios's but you need to see which Memory your card is running before chosing a bios. Hope this helps! GeeZer |

GeeZer Thanks for the tip Dave - my card unfortunately has heatsinks on the ram as standard (which makes it great for overclocking !) but I cant check the manufacturer without removing those and Im not going to do that. There was one Hercules 9700 NP bios on that site for Hynix ram which Ive tried but flashrom threw up an error and refused to flash it. Im beginning to think I may have to buy a TV Tuner card to give me an alternative Tv-out. Thanks again for your help. Ben |
