Thanks runix18 Iv tryed everything except flashing the card itself because it'll void warranty if something went wrong and I brick it so I'm taking it back to dealer... They told me a few other buyers had the same problem... So all fingers point to a defected card... Cheers for your help bud

Does my gpu need to be flashed with its on separate bios premius or something along those lines to prevent this from happening... Please find attached video

Hi there just wondering what I'm doing wrong here , iv flashed my alienware m18x r2 with the A11 unlocked bios installed the new Nvidia GTX 980m card but when I go to install drivers for it on a fresh install of win 7 os the screen will have virtical fuzzy lines then will go black is there a process I'v missed ? I'v brought this GPU off ebay its brand new but has no "VBIos" or any program built into it I;m pretty sure , does this need to be done before I go any further with driver support? Or install all the other driver supports for the system before attempting to install the gpu driver?  Just feels like I'v missed a step.

Thankyou for your time, any advice will be much appricated.

It seems after the fuzzy virtual lines the black screen will stay on but the sound off windows is still plays so it ls like I can still operate windows
