BIOS fail ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce® GTX 1660 SUPER™ OC Edition 6GB GDDR6, pls help!

[bunian]

Hi everyone!


I accidentally flashed the wrong BIOS on my GPU, and now I'm stuck.
My graphics card is: ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER OC Edition 6GB GDDR6 (model: TUF-GTX1660S-O6G-GAMING).


After the wrong BIOS flash, every time I install NVIDIA drivers, the screen goes black and the PC restarts constantly. I can only use the computer in Safe Mode with Networking.


Could anyone please send me the original/factory BIOS for this exact GPU model or tell me where I can get it safely?


Thanks a lot in advance!

Did you put some effort in seaching on the VGA BIOS Collection? It took me a few seconds.

I tried so hard that I downloaded it twice and the problem continued... Do you have any tips on how to install it safely? Because I'm doing the default one through NVflash and it's still giving me these things... but I'll test it again with the one you sent me and get back to you, thanks.

Looks like there is an issue where some cards have locks for other bioses, there are threads out there on mining forums, google around a bit.

Always save a backup of your bios before flashing.

Hynix GDDR6 · 90.16.5A.00.32 appears to be a “flash convert protected” bios that could not be flashed with the Palit bios miner's apparently liked.

So, you didn’t back up the one on there before messing with it??
