After hearing you can "easily" flash a 5900nu to a 5950u, i decided to try it, but it didnt work quite right....
First what i did was make a ms dos startup disk, and then i loaded the nvflash utility onto it, along with the xfx5950u bios, that i downloaded, when i went to do it, after typing in "nvflash -5-6 -f 5950u.rom" it said there was a board id mismatch. I then downloaded the wfflash utility, and when i did the command "wfflash nm 5950u.rom" it said Bad command line or file name, niether of which i could see how that would be the responce. So if anyone knows much about this, and can help me flash my card successfully, it would be greatly appriciated.
