Hi guys, need urgent help..tried to flash the gpu bios of my gtx460 in sli to be able to install the latest beta drivers..

however when it was finished and when i restarted my pc, i get artifacts on the screen.. and get bsod...

i tried running in safe mode, and tried to flash again
>nvflash.exe <rom> -4 -5 -6

(used version 5.95)

, but i get the message "ERROR: Unable to start service (0x0000043c)

also when i used the latest setup from palit site, i get alwys get the message no need to update your ga bios(or not support for your VGA card)

need help badly..thanks

i know, that was really stupid of me. prob now is i dont have a backup of my old bios...unles some has a copy of the old palit gtx460 bios..or im doomed.

also, cant i flash my vga bios while in safe mode? still i get those artifacts right from the start of bootup..its really frustrating. such a stupid move..

at first it was working when i was running with one gtx460. ad now that im adding another in sli, i thought maybe i should update it as well, and then there i got the problem.

early signs where there when gpu-z cannot load after flashing...
