Indeed @gamma742 is correct! 8)

@Rolo01 - you should contact the webmaster of the 3dfx bIOS website and send them to him. Grin

It's kind of like the @Falconfly archive - but for 3Dfx BIOS instead! Roll Eyes

LOL! Grin

I DID contact Stanto, sent him the files but he has not posted them on his web site  ???
So I guessed he has no interest.

but i'm interested in these bios files Wink

on this site there is a bios from the v4-2 4000! but you cannot open it with the editor! "loading error"
so i opened it with winhex and edited the first (no idea how many) lines and deleted all the FFFFFF. now you can open the bios with the editor but it is not ready to flash it! so i need a new bios.

The v4 4500 agp 1.18 bios  is the same one I used to flash my V5 5500 AGP. It worked fine. Still said it was a V5 5500 during the Boot-up and in "Display Properties".

Chosen_One, Why not start a new thread listing all of the BIOS you have. Maybe someone out there is willing to share/trade/swap with you?

Do some benchmarks and make sure you are not running in single chip mode  Tongue

That was the first thing I did "Q3 timedemo" I flashed that card several time. Some of the BIOSes had modified memory timing (agressive). To be honest, I didn't see much difference.  I settled on the 1.18 just becase it was the highest I could find at the time.
