    Hello,
    thank you guys and girls for this forum. I got inspired here to test new things. So I bought a P3000 on ebay installing into a XMG P702 from 2012, whats just the name from a german reseller.

    Short story long: It's working. No detection on BIOS, but modified driver can detect and it's doing what is suposed to do.

    Maybee someone add this to the list of succsesfull upgrades.

    All the BIOS detection does is scan the hardware ID, compare it against a list of known cards and display it in that little window on the BIOS. That's the full extent of what that does, so not exactly important :p
