After almost of week of use, the bios flash seems to be working (for the most part). Here are some of my experiences: 1. One instance of 4-6 blinks during a cold boot on Tues. Seemed to "stabilized" after that and didn't blink for the rest of the night. 2. Monitor sometimes freezes/displays garbage ...

I think flashing the bios is the solution for most people. Mines has not blinked since (24hrs).

An important question is if we can flash the dongle to an updated firmware.

I stand corrected. :?

I didn't know ATI actually completed any certification on any dongles.

Well, got some good news and bad news.

Bad news: My DP-->DVI monitor still blinks
Good news: It significantly blinks less (<10 times in the past 6 hrs). It used to blink 10 times in 2-3 minutes before the registry change.

This is worth a shot for anyone with the monitor blinking problem.

As with anything that is not officially "certified" by the manufacturer, you live with the outcomes. Don't get me wron...
