I can't get my PC / BIOS to detect my GTX 660 GPU (It worked before then just stopped) anyway someone suggested updating the BIOS for the GPU.

How do I update the BIOS of GPU if the PC / BIOS won't even detect it?

I don't know what else to do I can't use my GPU and it's driving me nuts!

If it worked fine before, then quit working altogether, a BIOS update isn't going to do you any good. Flashing GPU BIOS' is generally for setting higher factory clocks to my knowledge. What was the situation when your 660 went out, playing a game or some other kind of graphics' stress testing?

I opened the pc to clean it out with air then afterwords I went to boot up and it wouldn't detect the gpu anymore.

I also had recently installed a new PSU (corsair tx650 more than efficient) and I think I did a bios update prior to cleaning.

You think the bios settings need to be something specific for this card to work?

My ancient GTS 250 works fine in the same PCIE slot.

Anything get bumped loose during your cleaning. Power cables plugged firmly into gtx 660? I wouldn't think a motherboard BIOS update would cause it, but I can't say it isn't possible either. Try removing CMOS battery for awhile to see if that changes anything? Did the 660 work at all w/ your new PSU, or did it quit working as soon as you installed the newer power supply?
