Hey Guys, I hope I am posting this cry out for help in the right place, I'm a newbie to flashing GPU's. Having already bricked one of my cards, a week later I am still trying. My heads completely frazzled. I have read hours upon hours of threads & guides both here and over at Overclock.net. Problems started after Failing 1st flash, at the time I was really pleased I never tried to flash both at the same time. My systems under custom watercooling, having stripped it down I put !st card on my test bench, would not boot. Long story short after a few days I got my PC to boot off the good card. Few more days without any luck trying to reflash the bad card, today I have somehow got in a mess with the one that was working. I do everything as per the guides, Protect off follow all the commands correctly, asks me to press "Y" to continue and get the error in the title bar of this thread. I dare not turn the machine off for fear of bricking this card. I'm in the UK so really ought to tucked up in bed but as stated I dare not turn the damn thing off. Any of you guys with far superior knowledge and experience could point out what I am doing wrong I will be eternally grateful. I am just trying to flash the original bios back on the card in Gpuz card is showing up as Nvida GTX 980 Ti, Subvendor & Device ID re also correct, all other values are showing as unknown, clocks etc. are zero's. I have latest drivers which are showing as correct. Thanks you to anyone who looks, an even bigger thank you to anyone who might be able to help me out......
 
So uh, first off why did you want to flash?

Secondly fill out your system specs.

Was your card faulty before you tried to flash it or did a bad flash kill it?
 
NVFlash Bypassed is the key. Go to link that somelilboy post.

Sorry. Didn't see that this is 1 month old thread.
 
Hope he learned a lesson about not screwing with cards.

To everyone else that doesn't have a clue on gpu bios flashes you are warned, read my signature.
