Flashed and got error "invalid display adapter index specified"

trying to flash and trying anything. Experimenting
I saved as follows,
br04.rom size: 131,072 good save
gx2-1.rom size: 58,880 good save
gx2-0.rom size: 131,072 good save and I noticed exactly same size br04 bios.
gx2-A.rom size: 114,688 said "invalid display adapter index" but I was able to save. I opened it with Nibitor and alot of settings were good like the orig G93.rom bios settings. And also was confused with no date and said Cal chk sum 41, checksum FF, SubID: 0000, PRODUCT:yyyyyyyyyyyyy, date yyyos, board 0000 and no REV. I don't think there is a gx2-A.rom but it showed up when I saved it. The size is what caught my attention so I experimented with it. I compaired with the G93.rom bios and alot of settings matched. There is alot of blanks and no readings at all like timings, voltages, etc. My point is I can compair with the good bios G93 and fill in the blanks. Can't loose anything. The good bios won't take for what reason I don't know so I will fill in the blanks. Can't be the G92.rom bios because of the different size. So I will keep everybody informed. Kinda crazy huh? lolol Actually WEIRD. Ok Thank You

Progress? What would you do if the new G93.rom bios won't take and the error is " invalid display adapter index " And you find a gx2-A.rom shows saving as gx2-A.rom and is size 114,688.
When I run list at A-promp it only shows BRO4 & gx2-1.rom
I took a snapshot with GPU-z of both bios and compaired but don't know how to attach it.

I had some luck. BAD!lol Thank You. Gave me some ideas. Last I used A:nvflash --list [enter] and only showed like this:
<0>BRO4 ect,,,,,,,,, next line
<1>GX2 9800 ect. NO #2 or GX2 shows up. Just those 2 lines show. I'm using the card and tring to flash. NEW!! idea, lol. I put another GPU in last night. I allways seemed to run into blocks all the time while flashing while in use. I think if I try flashing outside of the GPU Card instead of tring to flash while my GPU was in use I just might get better reslts.
Took Care of the problem. I put a pci card in but would't boot. Soo, I bought a: EVGA 01G-P3-1452-TR GeForce GTS 450 SuperClocked Video Card - 1024MB GDDR5, PCI-Express 2.0, Dual DVI, Mini HDMI, SLI, DirectX 11, Fermi +99MHz Overclock to 882MHz
That'll fix it. lol
