I just tried to flash a 64 meg card and was unable to do so. I was getting an error message that the flashing failed. I cannot remember the error code, but maybe the following info will help.

Having flashed 2 successfully, I was pretty cocky and tried to do this without running flashrom -i first. Since both other cards were card 0 in the same pci slot (no other pci video cards in the flashing machine), I tried flashing this one using 0 as the card number and got an error. I tried twice and got the same error, figuring I mistyped something on the first try. After the second failure, I decided to run flashrom -i. It verified the card was card 0, however, nothing in the info string said DDR and when I reread the manual, the example showed that when you run -i that ddr was in the info string that it returns.

Does the above info lead you to believe that the card is sdr and non-flashable? or is there something else I am missing? or did I get taken and this is some other card masquerading as a Radeon?

Thanks and sorry if this post is a wrist slappable one.
