AW9D MAX - MOD for nvidia GT710

[cox]

Hi everyone,

Today i bought a new EVGA gt710 2Gb videocard to replace mi xfx core gts2501Gb.

well, it's a downgrade of course but i no longer play any games for the time. the reason i replaced it was that yesterday my old video card burns out(or some like that ) and i needed something cheap for keep working.

My motherboard is an ABIT AW9D-MAX with BIOS v.17 installed it comes with a double PCIe x16 v1.1, but the problem here is when I install the new card, it doestn boot. hangs in the 9.0 POST display

(nvidia specs and manufacturer box indicates it is 3.0 pcie but 'retrocompatible' with pcie 1)

Is there possible to do a BIOS mod to make this motherboard accept the new videocard?

thanks in advance, -excuse my english please-
