Be careful! Graphic card BIOS refreshing tool NVFlash Change 2004-01-08 ■ Concong ■ Computer News? The popular CIH virus in the past, once destroyed countless motherboards, have you ever thought of using NVIDIA display chip's graphics card also suffered like this Threat.
The threat is a universal refresh tool from NVFlash - NVIDIA's display card BIOS. Many newspapers and periodicals mentioned that this tool can only be run under DOS, but through the author verified, version 4.42 can be successfully saved in various versions of Windows, update the graphics card BIOS. This brings us great convenience, saving the trouble of making the boot disk, but also brought us potential threats.
Seeing the EEPFLASH in the help can clear the contents of the EEPROM (electrically erasable read-only memory). Since the 4.42 version can also access the graphics BIOS under Windows, you can also directly clear the graphics card BIOS content. By default, NVFlash can issue a tone, but after using the S parameter, it is in the mute mode. This, if the joint parameters E, S and 2 have not yet waiting for your reaction to come over the graphics card BIOS. However, don't restart your computer at this time, brush the correct graphics card BIOS file with nvflash, and what problems will not occur. But if you don't know, you can only face the black paste screen when you restart your computer. Worse, if you add the parameter y, then immediately restart after erase, there is no room for saving.
If you accidentally perform NVFlash through the camouflage and with parameters, then this thing will become a veritable N kill. Here you can prompt everyone, you can run nvflash -c under the "command prompt" of the system to check if the graphics EEPROM is within its support, if it is, it will be improved. If you really become lucky, it doesn't matter, find a PCI graphics card to guide the computer and then brush the new bad graphics card. The specific steps will not be described. ?
