    Hey guys.
    I'm trying to flash GTX1060, but the device ID of vBIOS I need is different

    nvflash does not seem to recognize switches -4 and -5 anymore.
    -6 works but that is subsystem ID override. I need to override device ID.

    I tried -o3 but it says it cannot write to unknown eeprom.
    --protectoff says the protection was disabled but it doesnt let me flash it anyway - keeps saying cannot write to eeprom.

    Any idea how to use new nvflash ?
    How do I make it override everything ? switches -4 -5 -6 work in old version, but I cannot use that to flash pascal.

    You are trying to flash the wrong vBIOS...use the regular version for regular card an g-sync for g-sync.
