I purchased a used Gainward Phantom GTX760. It fails to install drivers, causing crashes or blackouts. I compared it to a JayzTwoCents video showing a 780ti issue, which matched my symptoms except for the boot problems. Using GPU-Z revealed missing details about bus width, VRAM, and bandwidth. I attempted to flash the GPU with NVFLASH and disabled EEPROM protection, but received an error: "set EEPROM protection function failed." Avoiding the EEPROM didn’t help either. A system restart might be needed before using the utility. Could this mean the card is beyond repair? Thank you!
