    Hi guys,

    I need A.S.A.P. stock VBIOS for P770DM-G GTX980m. I have installed premamod few weeks ago. But after last nVidia driver system went in to boot loop with white screen. I need to overwrite modded vbios with stock vbios.

    You need to flash in windows anyway so...

    But I am pretty sure it isn't the stock vBIOS that will fix it. And you can get the stock vBIOS from Prema's site as well.

    Thank you for pointing me on stock vBios. I will try to flash it. Do I need to disable GTX980m in Device Manager or not?

    Do you have an old vBIOS version or something?

    I meant your Prema vBIOS. Have you tried using the latest Prema vBIOS mod again? If it really is broken we'll have to report to Prema, but I can't imagine why the stock vBIOS that was not updated makes any sort of sense to be working better in a new driver.

    Have you tried booting into safe mode and removing the GPU drivers?

    That is what was happening. I tried to rewrite premamod vbios and same situation. I now have stock vbios and latest nVidia driver. Working like charm. This is first time having some problems like this. Although I had similar problem with Alienware M18xR2 but after second BIOS and vBios rewrite,problems went away. I had system in SLI on Alienware.

    Also I have noticed big difference in performance also between stock EUROCOM X6W driver and latest nVidia drivers in Heaven benchmark. Of course benchmark is done with G-SYNC OFF because FPS.

    Check pics. Everything stock (no overclock).

    Stock drivers vs later ones is to be expected seeing that difference, though I find it interesting that your stock driver is so new.

    Either way, enjoy. Also, that isn't the latest driver set. 381.65 I believe is out xD.

    They will only push out so many updates via the automated download to stop hogging bandwidth most likely.

    Try going through the NVidia site for the driver, using the manual search feature.
