So, I will tell a long story short.
I am thinking of getting an IVB, so I decided to upgrade my BIOS to the L3.03 revision (beta one with support for Ivy). Everything went fine, BIOS flashed successfully (at least that's what InstantFlash said), but now I'm greeted with a D6 error everytime I try to boot my computer. And five beeps, they seem to be related to a lack of VGA. But it worked PERFECTLY before this flash, so the cards being dead is a really weird scenario (they're watercooled, so they're a PITA to check on another computer, but if it's a must, I may work my way out and connect it to another computer.
I already did the following:
- Massive CMOS clearing. (pushed button, removed power, removed battery for 20 minutes (yup, overkill), pushed button again, replaced battery, and put power back)
- Reseated the GPUs. Twice. Thrice.
- Checked the power connectors. Twice.
- Removed the SLi bridge and tried with and without it.
- Removed and cleaned all the RAM modules.
- Removed all the other cards.
- Removed all the other peripherals.
- Even, for the sake of randomness, reseated the BIOS IC.
Any tips, my fellow overclockers?
