    Does anyone else have the issue where when you flashed the Video card Bios the software that reads the fan speed and other readings does not work right?

    And if you flashed it with the OC version of the flash does all work right and you can get the readings off the Card.

    I have not tried the OC version of the flash yet so that is why I am asking.
    If it works I will flash that on the video.

    After I flashed the card I can run the new drivers and so far I have not had a problem . But I would like to be able to monitor what is going on in my card .

    And is this the final video bios we are going to get? OR are they going to issue a new and fully working bios for our machines.
    Between that and the non working Soudblaster options I will have a fully working laptop if they get those to us.

    Hmm well it may be the software, but it was working before I did the flash.
    I guess I can flash the OC version and see what happens.
    The video is running fine so far with the 10.8 drivers and I have not had any problems . I did get a driver quick working once, but that was when I clicked when my computer was going to sleep. So I think that was what it was as it has not happened again.

    I am wondering if they are going to give us a full version of the video Bios , as this one seems to be a fix it up version till we find out what to do. Or am I miss reading this and it is a final version for this laptop.
