    i know i know, there is a thread for this, but it doesnt seem to get much attn!!!



    so i have a x7200 and i want to flash the Sager = so i have access to the OC functions as well as other stuff, but TBH i dont know where to start, can you point me in the right direction? I have seen the thread over on Bios-Mods.com, but im not sure where to start, i can tell you i have a older Bios, i think version 1.x.x.5 as i myself have not updated it at all...if you could help me out i would really aprreciate it!! i really just need to speak to someone that has done it and knows what to do step by step

    Thank you

    I don't think I've come across a modded BIOS for this model. Was there one?

    Also: Cool avatar, @Mathomas83 :vbwink: The Division Bell was a good album.

    It looks like all of those links to the modded BIOS point to pages that don't exist anymore. Someone may have preserved and uploaded it to a file hosting site, but they'd have to share the link here (hopefully someone has, and does).

    I listened to Shine on You Crazy Diamond Pt. 1 so many flipping times way back when. Great album!

    You can do some amount of tweaking with software; Intel XTU and NVidia Inspector or MSI Afterburner.

    Ha ha ha, yeah that's the usual attitude...but seriously all these kiddies flashing some generic or self-made (v)BIOS 'trash-mods' cost re-seller quiet a few RMA cases every week...
    Hence we always have to ensure Clevo knows the difference whenever a larger public (and not so public) partner visits Taiwan...after all we are testing for months before pushing anything to user.

    For a change I accidentally recently even bricked an end-users system myself and that was @saturnotaku 's system, which I am deeply sorry for!!! (Due to a supposed cleaned base file, which...hmm...well has not been so clean after all) :oops:
