Re: How to update Video card BIOS?????

emosun thanks for the reply and I appreciate the word of caution....But what I regard as an imprtant feature of this card appears to be missing ...this is that this card is a GOLDEN SAMPLE model and as such it should have an "ENHANCED MODE" for OC which GAinward statein their manual that they will Guarantee to work in any system with a "Golden sample"... I am just trying to get the features for which I paid a premium for.
Gainwards instructions are not very good and have said that if the update fails to contact the retailer...I am now waiting for a reply from the retailer regarding warranty, as as you so rightly state there is a possibility of ending up with a paperweight.

I have asked for more detailed instructions from Gainward but doubt if they will be forth coming and I would NOT buy one of there products again. The card I have GTX260GS disappeared from their front page on the web and only by cli´cking another product and going round the houses as we say, can you find updates etc to this card..

anyway i would be grateful to know if anyone has done this or if anyone has solved this through otjermeans ...uninstalling Graphic card drivers etc etc or whatever
thanks
