BIOS Update

The last thing I did yesterday on my “gaming machine” was install the ATI Catalyst 5.8…

I come to play GTA:SA today and it doesn’t work.. wtf – spinning CD icon then nothing.

Numerous reboots later and still no luck.

  • Disabled reforce
  • Updated BIOS to latest version (1.30->1.A0), Neo2 Platinum MB
  • Restore BIOS settings to overclocked state

No joy

Search on google… find some forum thread about GTA: SA not working after 5.8 driver update! Uninstall 5.8′s, install 5.7′s

GTA:SA crashes after 2mins now

Setting ATI Tool back to use default values seems to work alright – so now I can’t overclock my graphics card

The BIOS update seems to have fixed the stalling on “Detecting IDE drives” which I sometimes get.. strange

So I don’t know if I should restore my 1.3 version of the BIOS with the original settings or what!
