    Pffff.

    Slap ma arse and call me Shirley!

    It was the VBIOS.

    Sorry for wasting anyone's time. When I said I updated the BIOS I meant the MB. I didn't even know there was a BIOS for the f'n card!

    All fixed now lads.

    I backed up my VBIOS with GPU-Z
    I used hpflash1.rar and used win98.rar to create a bootable dos disk
    Put the updated flash on it using the 478.rar supplied by Sapphire
    Changed the BIOS to boot from USB drive
    Ran the flash and hey presto

BSODs when gaming

I've been getting fairly regular BSOD's accompanied with buzzing when gaming, "IRQL not less or equal" deals. It generally happens pretty quickly, and I have watched temperatures under stress with this, so I'm not thinking it's a temp-related issue. I have run memtest for many hours which didn't...
