clr cmos + bios update is usually the first step

#

send a picture of the cable

#

and yes try a bios update

#

boards that have been shipped to you may have been in storage for months, meaning that theyre already on an older version of the BIOS that may contain some bugs

#

It is possible that the GTX 980 is not compatible with that board.

#

Remove the GPU and see if the error persists. You do have an iGPU on that LGA 1700 CPU, correct?

#

still it couldnt hurt to try

#

Remove the GTX 980 and boot off the iGPU

#

Okay. Then your issue is the 980. You either need to flash the VBIOS on that card up or get a new one.

#

The issue could be PCIe speed detection errors. You may need to manually set the PCIe speed to 3.0 for that GPU slot.

#

Right

#

Flash the GPU VBIOS.

#

flashing the gpu bios is much more difficult right?

#

nvm i guess you can just do it through software now?

#

buoyant fern flashing the gpu bios is much more difficult right?

Yeah which is why I suggested setting the PCIe Bus speed manually first

#

ah

#

i thought you had to get one of the thigns that clip onto the bios chip?

verbal bough Dec 26, 2022, 5:25 AM

#

Given that card is almost 8 years old though, ehhhh I'd find something newer.

#

No you can use NVFlash

buoyant fern Dec 26, 2022, 5:25 AM

#

ah

verbal bough Dec 26, 2022, 5:06 PM

#

Doubtful, no.
