So for anyone who didn't already know, over at Notebookforums, someone has found a way to flash the 7900GTX bios onto a GS card, and coined the name 7900GSX for it. Basically, it allows the GS to be overclocked very high and maintain stability.

However, a new mod has come out, that lets you use the GS bios, but change the timings, allowing for the same high overclocks.

I want to make my own ISO to copy to a disk so I can flash the BIOS, but I don't know how to create the image from the Roms and other files I have.

If anyone could help me, it would be very much appreciated.

Does it need DOS bootable? Same as main BIOS upgrading? If so - the easiest is to use a USB flash drive that boots into DOS and then you can start your flasher exe which will load new ROM file into graphic BIOS.

Go here and follow instructions I made:
