If some kind soul could use nvflash to dump the bios from an EVGA 1070 SC gaming, black edition (08G-P4-5173-KR) and send it my way I would really appreciate it. I can’t seem to find a copy online anywhere and I failed to make a backup for myself (feel free to shame me if you must.)
I was on auto-pilot updating bioses and accidentally flashed an MSI bios to all of my EVGA cards. The update script no longer recognizes my 1070’s as EVGA cards. I wish the MSI script had been as smart. If somebody knows how to force the EVGA script to flash my cards that would certainly work too. Any help would be appreciated.

How do you pull the rom image from the card, using Linux?
Can you give me step by step directions or point me to them?

PS : oh wait you “need” the nvflash version of it because the EVGA tool doesn’t work anymore. Well can’t help with that.
PS2 : actually it should work, the EVGA app at least on windows is an embedded version of NVFLASH, so the bios file should be compatible with nvflash, try !

Thanks for the replies and attempted help guys.
@groovy1962 Saving an image with nvflash is as simple as “nvflash -save [file_name].rom” The hard part for you would be that I don’t know of a version of nvflash for linux or a comparable tool (maybe gpu-z? That can save vbios images too). If you want to give it a shot through an emulator it should work, in theory. The worst thing that happens is I flash a corrupted bios instead of an incorrect one. That might even be an improvement for me as the EVGA tool might recognize a corrupted version of one of their vbios. Let me know if I can do anything to assist.
@m1n1ngP4d4w4n and ylpkm I have the correct version of those files from the EVGA site. The problem is what’s included in those downloads are two files. “nvflash64.sys” and “update.exe” As m1n1ngP4d4w4n pointed out they use nvflash to deliver their fixed vbios, however they don’t include the rom itself. update.exe seems to be nvflash, the .rom and some sort of wrapper to automate the update process all rolled into one and compiled together. have tried using the correct version. It detects my cards but skips them presumable because it sees the MSI bios and assumes I’m an idiot…which I am, just not the kind of idiot they were expecting The only solutions I’ve come up with are to find some version of the vbios that’s intended to be on these cards and flash that by hand or force EVGA’s update.exe to flash my cards. If you have other solutions I’m certainly open.
I’m going to go try using options and commands that are part of nvflash.exe and see if “update.exe” passes them along. Might be able to force it to update that way

Yeah i was thinking about this forcing from nvflash may work as a update.exe parameter.
Yeah wrapper sadly, i wonder actually why they didn’t release a solution for linux owners, i would suggest you to post on this EVGA forum topic for them to give out the rom file directly, linux people SHOULD be able to update their bioses !
Hope you resolve this matter :/

That’s exactly what I needed! Nice find ylpkm. Five minutes and one nvflash /6 later and I’m good to go!
