You did reboot after running nvflash right?
yep, even tried with a complete shutdown after the flash.. didnt change anything. look like it isnt actually flashing the bios. I am quite lost at this point of time and RMA doesnt look like an option to me. A friend has the exactly same card, i asked for him to save his vbios and send it to me to flash... didnt work either.
I found a comand in nvflash to restore a local copy of infoROM, would that make any change?
according to the nvflash is valid...
C:\nvflash>nvflash64.exe --recoverinforom

Reading VBIOS image for recovering inforom....
The existing InfoROM image is valid. Restoring the InfoROM from
the embedded recovery image may cause some data loss.
Are you sure you want to continue?
Press 'y' to confirm (any other key to abort): n

but... upon comparing the vbios in the card vs. the rom ive downloaded..
