    Sorry for the late reply. I won't go into details of the backup process since this isn't really a thread for such. The process is pretty much the same regardless of what kind of computer you have. You can find detailed walkthroughs (if you haven't already) by google searching some of the tool's I'll mention.

    I use Clonezilla from a USB thumb drive. Clonezilla is nice for me because I can use it for my Windows system backups or my Linux backups. Works same either way. I boot up from the thumb drive and in the menus it will ask if I want to backup or restore and if I want an image backup or a cloned drive, and which partitions. etc. Requires a little bit of unix knowledge since Clonezilla uses Linux. Drives/partitions are referred to as /dev/sda, sdb, sdc, etc (the physical drives) and sda1, sda2, sdb1, sdb2, etc (the numeric suffix refers to the partition on the drive). But once you study the walkthroughs or look for a youtube video to help it becomes pretty easy.

    You could also try Acronis True Image or Paragon, etc. which some find to be even easier, but I believe those cost money.

    Has anyone been able to improve performance overclocking the M6100 Firepro on the M6800? Overclocking the core gives me 0% gain in 3dmark and if I touch the memory the performance goes down. Even if I overclock it 1 mghz. Something seems locked. I'm using MSIAB.

    Nope, can't be overclocked. Tried almost anything, doubt it is happening unless we get a mod'd vbios. The card run so cool~~~

    That sucks. I think you're right. I've tried everything I can think of and can't get it working. No bios editors support this card either.

    There are some option enabled in msiab that allowed me to increase the max clock, and it does go up to such clock, but there aren't any performance gain as the clock just fluctuate. The clock actually dip lower with max clock raised.a
