I acquired an MSi RTX 3080 Ventus 3x OC from a friend who used it to mine along with other 3080s (Trio, Strix, FTW3 Ultra).
This one has an outdated BIOS version without resizable bar, which I wanted to test. So, I tried to flash it and:
-can't flash it with newest nvflash following all the steps in guides, CMD as admin, even tried in safe mode, gives me error "Adapter not accessible or supported EEPROM not found, skipping" and "ERROR: Detecting GPU failed."
-can't save the current bios with nvflash, gives me error "ERROR: A system restart might be required before running the utility." and restarting does not work.
-can't remove the protection with --protectoff, gives me error "ERROR: A system restart might be required before running the utility." which again does not work.
-can't save current bios with GPU-Z, gives me the "bios reading not supported on this device" (this is the first thing I tried)
My friend told me he never changed the bios, all he did was save it with Hiveos (he did change pads and thermal paste)
GPU-Z shows me all the info, including the bios version no problem there, and the card works, except it has a low performance compared to other 3080s: furmark bench at 1080p is around 16000 points when in other 3080s is 17000; also in Unigine Superposition is a similar matter.
My friend told me to install Hiveos and he would flash my card from his home as apparently one can't do it in the same computer and I have only one now...
I was thinking of using a bootable USB and see if I could do it that way, but I don't know if I will need another card to do so, I guess no...
Any ideas?

Bro don’t worry it’s not about a mined card or bla bla whatever the comments are making this a poop party.
I wanted to reflash my 3080 g x trio from the suprim bios bcoz i be running it 24hrs for awhile.
I FACED(so read for the good part) i’d the same issue prompting restart required and gpuz saying is not supported whatever F’s
After some research i’d a hunch the manufacturers have a shadow deal with these bunch.
Skip gpuz and dont use the latest nvflash, its made to make us feel like be bricked our cards or so
Download this version of nvflash 5.667
NVIDIA NVFlash is used to flash the graphics card BIOS on Blackwell, Ada, Ampere, Turing, Pascal and all older NVIDIA cards. NVFlash supports BIOS

If u notice there is no 32 or 64 bit version. Look up tech power up for your correct bios.
Follow the standard step
1.
Nvflash -b backup.rom
2.
Nvflash - - protectoff
3.
Nvflash -6 with your new bios.rom
Wah la! I hoped it helps, at this point of clicking send i am boarding my plane, i hope when i land i hope to see it helped you
Well, me and my friend did the Hiveos thing and he managed to save and flash the bios of my GPU from his terminal...so there might be a problem with my Windows 10?
I will test the bootable USB way, to see if I can do a --protectoff and a saving of bios with nvflash, that would be en
