Bios not showing on display

   Solution is, that bios outputs graphics via one specific display port of card one. In the past it was able to find the card where the displays are attached to. Anyway, at least I have a workaround to see the bios.

	I stop experimenting with the cards and wait for asrock support (unfortunately they are off until new year). Thanks so far and happy new year.

	just flash like you normally do ..but if you can't see the BIOS screen to do so makes it a bit difficult,lol. Do you have enough slack in your plumbing to unplug one of the cards from the motherboard and let it hang there for however long to see if BIOS is accessible?

	Or, how do I downgrade if I can't see the bios?

	Unplugging a either card did not help. But, how do I "downgrade" to an old bios? I never did that.

	how about just unplug the power cable to one one or the other to see if BIOS comes up .. and then flash back to 1.60 until they push out another update .. might work .. might not..?

	Nope, because it would mean to dismantle the watercooling. It worked before the bios update, which indicates it is not an issue with the cards. But if there is no other solution I might need to try it.

	.. and have you tried just one or the other card being installed by itself?

	Thanks for chiming in: I have two cards: 2080 Ti in slot 1 (x16) Quadro RTX 4000 in slot 3 (x16) I tried them both. One or multiple displays attached to either of the cards. Result is always the same - black screen until Windows login.
