GTX 1070 black screen after bios UPDATE, please HELP :(

Hey everyone ! 2 Hours after updating my GPU BIOS to F11 everything was ok, but when I shut down my PC and decided to turn it on 1 hour later my GPU wasnt displaying anything, Im always getting a black screen.Im letting you know that all the PC parts are NEW. I switched to my integrated graphics card in order to flash my GPU back to F1 but im still getting the same black screen over and over again.I also tried to re-install the drivers but nothing worked.
Before having any problems in the Xtreme Gaming software the bios was displayed as F1, now it says Unknown.
Id really appreciate your help.
Thanks !

Well I was hoping for better overclocking potential. The thing is that even after i restarted my system once the bios was installed i was able to play games with no problems at all, but when i shut it down for a couple of hours this thing happened which is kinda weird since it was working well with the new BIOS even after the restart.

Bad reason to update. Also, bad idea to upgrade the bios on a card without switchable dual bios.

 

Sounds like your card is hosed, e.g. the bios upgrade didn't actually take. Best bet is if you can boot from onboard and re-flash it to a good version. Otherwise the card is bricked and will not be repaired under warranty.

He should be if the bios was an official update and not some hack.

I used the updates from Gigabyte, no custom bios was installed on the card.

Gigabytes cusotmer service isnt the best. 

 

Try doing what SSL said. Boot the computer using the on-board graphics. Try and update the bios for the gpu again with the same version you just tried. If that doesnt work then call gigabyte, and if/when they wont help you then post it onto reddit.com/r/nvidia. Say that gigabytes update killed your card and they wont replace it .

ROFL, tried to flash the card many times with different BIOS versions, nothing worked. The thing is that the GPU itself is working, even when i plug my monitor into it i can hear how windows boots and all but it just wont display anything, im pretty sure there is a way to fix this.

When I first got my GTX 1060 I uninstalled all drivers (Because I got a BSOD when I upgraded from a GTX 295 to a GTX 580...) when I inserted my GTX 1060 and I tried to boot my system I did not have any screen. Everything loaded, and I can hear the windows login.

 

Solution: Reinstall your graphics card drivers. Might have to go to the website, and manually get the drivers.
