Geforce GTX 1060 Code 43

Hello all.

I have a Clevo P150sm in July 2019 i got a Geforce gtx 1060 on Ebay, everything was working well, the last few months i havent used the card (or installed new drivers) because a shifting of interest, yesterday i was going to install the driver for it again, but i just getting a code 43 from nvidia, i have tried everything but it doesnt work, i think its faulty now, i havent flashed the vbios iet, that is the last thing i am going to do, but i just need help finding out where i can get an updatet vbios?

 

Try older drivers first.

 

From the time when it was working.

 

The fact it was working then stopped working with a Code 43 usually means it is potentially faulty / hardware failure.

Roll back to the last, known working set of drivers/state.

Last resort, give it a clean install with the last known working driver set.

What model 1060 is it?

 

Thanks for answers! i have tried old drives but it did not work, same error, its a GTX 1060 6gb if thats what you mean with model?

 

More the maker of the card.

Do you have a pic of it front and back?

 

Yes pictures are attached, i could not find my old 780m card, but i found my old amd 7879m or something, that card is my replacement now, working good, why is it just the nvidia drivers that are a problem on windows? i needed to do the inf mod on nvidia, with the amd it just worked.

 

The core contact is pretty terrible on the Nvidia card.

 

I Have the same problem , I have P150SM and this bloody gtx1060 . My version is 1C20. Initially i was able to install drivers(384.76) but card was working only for a while and then system went to BSOD with Video Memory Management Internal. Since that happended , i can't install any drivers,even those was working before, because windows keep blocking the card after reboot with error 43.
On german Ebay auction i saw exactly the same card and description says that you must have 230W PSU , otherwise card won't work. Because i have 180W PSU ,I believe this damaged my card,however my seller didn't say anything about required PSU... So i have to send it back to China for warranty repair/replacement...

 

Some cards had terrible VRM quality. Do you have a link?

On the face of it that's not one of the bad designs. Might have just got unlucky?

 

I don't know. Just ordering 230w PSU in the meantime , to be on the safe side.

 

The brick will run cooler which is a nice plus as it wont be run near its limits.

 

I have the same number on my card, i dident think i could send it back, i need to check that up!
Also got a 180A PSU

 

Depends on where you got it I suppose on the protection you get.
