CH341a Bios Flashing help

[Clippy]

Recently picked up a 1070 which has a corrupt bios and am trying to flash it using a CH341a tool and NeoProgrammer to flash the fresh bios onto the IC. I've seen a handful of videos and havent found any solution to my problem. After connecting to the IC, the programming software recognizes the IC and gives me a SPI ID but does not show any IC on the list to select to flash the software to. Wanted to see if anyone had a little more knowledge on these tools than I have.

So how are you attempting to flash the GPU firmware?
You would need to (most likely) run the GPU as a secondary GPU and not primary in order to do this.

Have you confirmed that the GPU is legit? It could very well be a fake.

What is the brand + exact model of your GTX 1070?

Confirmed it as real it’s a Gigabyte 1070 Mini OC, I have it connected to the power supply although system not powered on and have it attached to my laptop via a 341a connector and running NeoProgrammer where the issues lie where it can detect the chip but gives me no options to select what to modify

Do you have a Desktop you can put it in?
You can do it from a Desktop; either by connecting the GPU normally, then simply connect your Display to Motherboard/Onboard GPU and use that. You can also install the GPU into a lower PCIE slot while using your primary PCIE X16 slot GPU as your primary Display.

CH341A is for updating motherboard EEPROM chips. Can't update a GPU with that tool.

I figured out the error was that I was using an outdated version of the software, once I updated it immediately detected the bios chip on the gpu

Oh ok, interesting. I was reading up on it and I couldn't find anything about people using it to update GPUs. Glad you figured it out.
