Cannot use with GTX 480

[ghost]

I dumped the ROM from my GTX 480 using nvflash and this tool does not work.

Screenshot:

I've tried this using Python2 and Python 3 but have had no success. I tried a completely origninal (non-EFI supported) GTX 480 ROM as well as a patched EFI ROM (I used this to make the ROM: https://www.win-raid.com/t892f16-AMD-and-Nvidia-GOP-update-No-requests-DIY.html ) and I get the same error each time.

Ignore the above screenshot. I typed the file name wrong when trying the EFI ROM, though the error is still the same regardless. Thought I'd point that out :)

Sorry for the late reply.

This tool only works with the Pascal series of GPUs (GeForce GTX 1xxx series). It's mentioned in the README, although it's admittedly not very clear. I've added a note about compatibility to the README that should be more visible.

Is there any plans to get this working for maxwell gpus?

[Matoking]

I created this script for my own use, so I have no plans to develop it further myself. I do accept any pull requests that enable support for other GPU architectures.

OK that's a shame because I have no idea what I'm doing but would love to have a single gpu passthrough system working. I can't play vulkan games or dxvk because they don't support bumblebee.

@joewragg try using the version in my PR #9

This should allow you to do it by adding the command line flag --disable-footer-strip

@joewragg try my pull request #11

But you need to use an EFI Patched vBios for GTX480. When it does not work, please upload your EFI rom.
