Hello, sorry for sorry for the noob question. I upload modified bios and don't know whether the card uses the standard or modified bios.

In the picture I showed how I have. I don't understand how to use this switch.


 
Help :)

switch 1 lets you choose bios1 or bios2. switch 2 sets the bios to write enable or write protected.
as it is now on the pic the card is using bios1 and this bios is write protected.

Thank you for the answer. So which memory is factory original bios? Where do I upload the modified bios - BIOS 1 or 2?

as far as I know they should be the same, for ease don't change bios1 but play with bios2.
to use and change bios2 switch 1 and switch 2 must be both up.
 
here is a very good helpful thread about this topic:
