Hello. I tried to update my bios from 1.00 to 2.30. It updated fine and then.. just black screen. After tons of resetting and changing cables, ram and other things I managed to run it again and indeed the bios is updated and the system runs, but only on integrated graphics. If I set it to pci-e it gives code d6 and/or stays on a black screen. I downgraded the bios to 2.10, but it's the same.

When I'm in Windows with the integrated, EVGA precision can see the cards, gpu-z, cpu-z, device manager can see them too. If I connect the first card with another cable cable (DVI), Nvidia control panel recognizes them too and creates a second virtual screen. So the cards are working but something is wrong. I managed to set Windows to use that second virtual screen as my primary, but it's not the best solution. This means I have to boot with integrated in VGA and then when Windows loads to swtich to DVI...

I downloaded 1.00, 1.10, 1.20, but the bios doesn't find them on the flash drive. Is there any way to downgrade to 1.00 or just fix this mess (without dismantling my system, it's water cooled)? Thanks.

cpu: i5 2500k
motherboard: Z68 Extreme4 Gen3
cards: 2x GTX 670
