Question There's no Vbios support

So every few days i get this message when i try to turn on my PC after it was shut down for the night : ' There's no VBios support, changed to UEFI' and my fans starts spinning at 100% speed while PC keeps restarting itself, then i need to turn the PSU off, replug DP cable that goes into GPU. and it boots normally,with that message.

Problem that i have with that, that it was UEFI from the beggining, so i'm not sure when it changes itself to CSM. i tried googlin the problem even read posts on this forum and far as i know ,everything seems to be in order : Both of my SSD's are GPT ( Windows 11), GPU supports UEFI ( RTX 2070 super, checked in GPU-Z ), got i9-12900KF ( it has no integrated graphics)

I did have Windows 11 installed before with my old setup : i5-8600k and older motherboard.

Changed couple of month ago to i9-12900KF + Aorus elite ddr4 z690 and never encountered that problem.

But i accidently bent pins on that mobo,so i changed to MSI Tomahawk z690 ddr4 wifi. Could it be that the problem is in the motherboard itself. Is there a chance that i messed up something at Windows installation?
 
Did you clean install windows at all after the swap? that might fix it

vbios is the gpu, it could be a old driver from old install messing with pc still. especially if 3 motherboards are involved

try updating bios on motherboard?
 
newest bios on motherboard? I know, I asked already.

seems you can get that on integrated cards anyway, which would seem confusing.
its an MSI motherboard error

solutions I have found:
one guy replaced all his cables
one person swapped pcie cables.

there is no one answer, I would suggest asking on here as it seems pretty common - https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?forums/msi-intel-boards.54/

they might ask about newest Vbios, I can see one from 2019 but card may already have it, and they might be specific to models. might help to check its website.

Yes sorry i didn't answer all of your questions in first reply.

*I'ts new fresh clean windows installation
* Updated GPU drivers
* Updated BIOS and all drivers possible

The PSU is also new, Asus rog 1000w , bought it together with new CPU and mobo. the display port cable is also pretty new, new monitor not even 1 year old.

I mean i could replace the cable i guess. but not sure if that would actually fix the problem.

I'm not an expert,but it seems that in some weird way, my PC changes itself to CSM after it's been off for the night/longer period of time.

Is it possible that my GPU is just slowly dying?
 
have you tried replacing cmos battery as its only way I can think of where a bios forgets. It seems too specific as that would also reset XMP each time as well.

If you hadn't received error on the previous boards, and its an MSI motherboard based error, it could be a faulty board

All the signs make me think its the board, not the GPU.
 
I didn't since i'ts brand new mobo. yeah my XMP and undervolt settings stay the same.

So i guess somehow my PC changes from UEFI to CSM during it's off time.

I forgot to mention that i did get that error : there's no GOP, changed to CSM once or twice. but that was before.

I assumed you got a new one here

CMOS battery stores settings for the PC. I don't know of any other way it could change when its off. the state of the pc shouldn't change when its shutdown. its still plugged in.

I saw that GOP error on the MSI forums. in a thread about this error. The answer seems to vary, it seems it could be anything - unhelpful I know.

What make is the 2080? What OEM made it?
