    Just curious if anyone has flashed their card since you cant overclock with the new drivers. I tried backing up my bios in Nibitor and it just bluescreens my computer and restarts itself every time i try.

    Flash it with what?
    Vga bios is encoded into BIOS. You cant (not posed to) flash the card sperately. Dont even know how you would go about that.

    that guide does not work on G1s unfortunally. You have to edit the laptop bios. The guide was made by bigspin and he has a acer 5920G with a mxm card. The g1s 8600M is on the motherboard.
