Anyone seeing this error when attempting to flash the new BIOS for EVGA cards? New BIOSES supposed to address temperature issues. Running Vista64 SP-1. So far no help from EVGA forums from EVGA.

Where did you get your card from? Is this from Europe or US?

Kim, are you trying to flash your card in Safe Mode by any chance? When I tried flashing my SC in Safe Mode it errored out as well. Tired it again from the Standard Windows Desktop and then it worked fine.
