I cant flash my 9800se to a pro. I softmodded it and all the pipelines work fine. I overclocked it to nearly XT speeds and still no artifacts.(I have an Arctic Cooling VGA Silencer {Very Big Fan}) I hardmodded it yesterday to a Pro and all the pipes work its just that it still gets recognized as a SE in Windows and other apps. If I try to Flash it I only get an error:" ERROR data not erased " Plz help.

    It is possibe and very easy to softmod a regular 9800 to a Pro but the 9800se is a totally different card. The 9800, 9800Pro and 9800XT are all 256 bit (not to be confused with 256MB) memory interface cards while the se cards are 128 bit interface cards. Also the 9800, pro and XT cards require extra power by way of ann auxilary power plug that the se cards lack as well as a bunch of extra capacitors and such. If thats not enough the memory modules are completely different. You may be able to OC the daylights out of your se but thats about it.
