    Hi! I try to edit a bios 7690m, but no success. I try to save bios with different program. RBE 1.28 can't aquire bios, winflash also can't read bios. I try to create a bootable usb and aquire bios from atiflash, but also without result. I want to overclock my video card and preffered edit it's bios. Because disabling ULPS increase power consumption. Example: with ULPS i have a 10.8 mA battery drain, without ULPS 17-18 mA. Any ideas to aquire bios?

    The author of RBE as stated that the 7000's bios is not compatible and he has no ETA

    We were able to pull the 7970m bios using a bootable USB and atiflash, but the only way to read the file is to use a hex editor.

    You can reference my 7970m install guide (found in sig) for the overclocking guide. It will work with the 7690 also...but you will have to mess with ULPS
