All,
I am attempting to test and verify some older GPUs that I have sitting downstairs.
I have a Sapphire 290 Reference Card that I am certain I flashed with a 290X back when I first purchased it.
I am attempting to put it into my existing desktop and I cannot get any video whatsoever to appear on the screen. The desktop will not POST.
When I put my 2080 Super back in, I get a message about my VGA is not compatible with the UEFI Driver.
I recall back in the day, the 290 came out right about the time the transition from BIOS to UEFI was starting.
If I have to flash the card again, I don't mind, but I'd rather not...... I did install Windows 10 in UEFI mode so I know I can't change it now....
I do have my Alienware laptop and external graphics amplifier sitting around...... could I possibly flash a UEFI compatible BIOS using my laptop??
