My vBIOS will not update.
 
3080FTW3 screen stays black for 10+ minutes when I try to update the vBIOS in Precision X1. If I leave it that long, the PC freezes up and I had to hard reset the computer and reinstall the nvidia drivers. If I press a key within a few minutes the display comes back on and sometimes it says canceled by user. 
 
Gigabyte X570 motherboard with latest 33g bios and a 5900x.
CSM disabled, Resize BAR Auto, Above 4G on
 
Any ideas?? Thanks! 
 
EDIT: I tried performing the update with the BIOS switch in both positions. Same outcome.

Try pressing Y again after 30 to 45 seconds like someone else posted in this thread.

Thanks! That did it. I swear I tried to read all 11 pages and I didn't see any similar problems. I totally missed that. Thanks again!
 
EDIT: Now I have a new problem - Can't boot from USB stick (which I need to do regularly) with CSM support turned off. It's a Linux boot so I can't format it differently. What a PITA. LOL

I flashed the VBIOS Jacob uploaded for my card and I no longer have any video output. I switched by 3080 FTW Ultra to the Normal BIOS via the switch on the card itself. How can I recover the other VBIOS if I can't even receive video output when I switch to it? Is there a utility of some sort I can use? Thanks!

Did you disable CSM in BIOS? That seems to be a common issue with updating and then not having video out.
 
With that said, yes you can recover - boot with the good VBIOS, switch the VBIOS switch to the "bad" VBIOS, and use EVGA's  to flash the original.

I had CSM disabled in my BIOS when I updated. Should I have had it enabled? In regards to the recovery, so I can just boot using the normal BIOS, flip the switch to the OC BIOS while the computer is still on, then simply run the flash executable? Thanks!

EDIT: Had to disable CSM in my motherboard BIOS.  Works now!
 

I have the Z390 AORUS PRO (rev. 1.0) and once I disabled the CSM Support under "Boot" at the bottom. It now boots into Windows and shows the Re-sizable bar enabled in GPUZ and Nvidia.

JacobF I have a 3090 FTW3 Ultra; but I never updated the OC Bios from 450W to 500W.  My card does NOT seem to have PCIe load balancing issues (maybe I lucked out?) even though I got this card last year (Made in China model, black trim).  I can hit 450W in games and not pull more than 76W on my PCIe slot, so I am happy with that.

Questions:
1. Will PX1 actually flash my vbios with an "official" 500W ReBAR Bios for the OC Slot now (which is the slot I am using) or will it flash a 450W ReBAR Bios for the OC Slot?
2. Will this update possibly screw something up to where I no longer have good load balancing and my PCIe power draw will now go above 75W?

Thanks ahead of time for any insight!  Sorry I am unable to send a PM until I hit 10 posts, but I think maybe this got missed earlier in the thread...  thanks.

Technically you do have a PCIe load balance issue. You are going above the rated 75 watts on the slot. My program card with the same wattage is usually under 60 watts.

That being the case; how easy was the RMA/Program in terms of sending your card in and getting one back?  As nuts as demand is right now; I'd hate to be without a card for weeks or longer.
 
The card itself performs really well; I'd hate to get one that performs worse in the end.  I don't think 76W is going to hurt anything when I saw many of the bad cards with the issue were hitting 80W+ on the PCIe slot (which is very bad).
 
Has your performance improved?  Same with just lower PCIe power draw?

Hi ,
 
I just used the X1 software and flashed my RMAed card that had the newer bios on it from the 3090 email on the OC switch and it is now not showing any video. I switched to the normal bios and I'm getting video. 
 
I have turned off the pc and disconnected power for 30 seconds. The OC bios after updating with X1 is not showing any picture. This was before I was able to enable the re-sizable bar in the software. The motherboard has it set to "auto".
 
What should I do now? Cannot see any picture on the OC bios only normal. 
 
Steps I took to update bios

1. Installed X1
2. It said it needed an update, had to update or I could not get into the software
3. After update, i went to the re-sizable bar tab
4. CLicked on "Update" next to the vbios in the list.
5. It ran the update and said it was successful.
6. It said that I had to reboot. 
7. I rebooted and now no picture on OC bios side.
   1. Normal bios works.

 
I followed the exact same steps above and I'm having the same issue. No video while using the OC Bios. For now I switched back to the Normal Bios and I do have video. Has anyone found a way around this issue?
 
System:
EVGA 3080 FTW3 Ultra
Asrock Z370 K6 with
CSM is disabled and CAM is enabled
 
 
Edit: I went back into my bios and left CSM disabled but disabled CAM then shut down my PC and switched back to the OC profile. From there I was able to get my video working again and booted into windows. I checked X1 just to be sure everything updated correctly.



 
While I still don't have Resizable bar enabled (since I turned it off in my bios) I was able to at least get to windows. This is making me think that there might be another setting in the asrock bios that needs to be set for this to work? Or maybe the beta bios has an issue... Has anyone with an asrock z370 motherboard gotten this to work?

Very Similar problem here. Something in the Asrock bios seems to be conflicting with the new vbios when I try to turn on Rebar. The system doesnt post with "boot" and "vga" psc lights on. I resetted cmos to boot back to bios and it worked. But when I tried to enable rebar again, same problem (resetted cmos again). csm was disabled as well so I dont know what the problem is. For now i am just keeping rebar off on my bios settings and that seems to solve the booting problem but now I cant enable rebar which kinda sucks.

I'd check with asrock regularly for a mobo BIOS update. I have the x570 asrock board and had no issues with the new 1.04 bios.

Asrock Z370 K6 already have new bios (4.20C) to download support re-sizable bar.

I didn't disable CSM before I installed the BIOS update and everything. I hadn't even read this thread so I didn't know I had to do that. Will anything happen? PC booted just fine. Still, I disabled CSM AFTER the BIOS update. Please advise.
