EDIT: I overlooked the fact that my onboard GPU doesn't actually disable on my 690G, it worked in my little brothers 750i


I had an extra 8600GTS lying around and figured "why not try and turn it into a FX1700?" I didn't expect it to work but now that I've gotten it fucked up, I can't flash it back. NVflash sees it as a FX1700 (using integrated video) but it wont flash it back even with the nvflash.exe -4 -5 -6 oldbios.rom command it tells me "no matches found" after overriding everything.

Any insight?

Thank you in advanced
 
Oldbios.rom is the correct bios for sure? Double check..

Try reflashing it with a redownloaded version of the old bios.

Try looking for different extensions rather than the -4 -5 -6

Hail Mary (last resort): Call Nvidia and pray you don't get a dick on the phone? Be sure to not use your real name the first time you call and don't use your real number either.
