Hi, my father purchased a Tesla V100 PCIE 32GB Card from eBay, and upon receiving it, we realized the Card has a different hardware version vbios flashed onto it.
The card SHOULD be a Tesla V100 PCIE 32 GB, But instead, its device ID is "DEV_1DB8", and when googling this, it comes up as a "NVIDIA Tesla V100-SXM3-32GB"
NVIDIA Tesla V100-SXM3-32GB1DB8
Which seems to suggest that whoever had the card before us, flashed the SXM3 Vbios onto the card.
I want to restore the card to the PCIE 32 GB vbios instead. However, no matter which version of the NVFLASH tool i find (NVFLASHk, NVFLASH Cert Removed, NVFLASH OMG, ETC)
it never works. I am using the only vbios i can find on this website for the PCIE 32GB version of the card.
The card does work as is,all thought i had to use NVClean Install to add this device ID. I was able to get geekbench to run a test on the card, and thats about it.
I want to use the card for more than just TCC (which is what the card seems to be locked to, i also cant change this either)

You will need a spi flasher to do it
