Do I need to update the GOP on my MSI GTX 1650 D6 VENTUS XS OCV3?

I just found out about that GOP on NVIDIA GPUs are going to expire and I now wonder if I need to update the GOP on my NVIDIA GPU?

I have a 'MSI GTX 1650 D6 VENTUS XS OCV3' GPU on a 'B550M PRO-VDH WIFI' motherboard.

I have the latest version of the motherboard BIOS '7C95v2O'(2026-05-11), that has a updated Secure Boot Key =

B550M PRO-VDH WIFI

Best AMD AM4 B550 MATX motherboard, lightning PCIe 4.0, lightning M.2, USB 3.2 Gen 1, M.2 heatsink, wifi AC, powerful overclocking, MSI PRO
www.msi.com www.msi.com

In 'Windows 11', it says that I have all the required certificates =

Am I safe or do I need to update the GOP?

My GPUs support page don't have a GOP or VBIOS updater =


Through Google I have found several 'NVIDIA Graphics Firmware Update Tools', but according to their description they are either for older or newer GPUs.

Is there a way for me to check if I need to update the GOP and can I update the GOP on my 'MSI GTX 1650 D6 VENTUS XS OCV3'?

At this point, you have the CA 2023 certs applied. The problem for older NVIDIA cards is some have firmware signed using the PCA 2011 cert, which is scheduled to be revoked later this year. When that happens, your GPU won't communicate with the BIOS during start-up.

There are 3rd-party tools discussed in the NVIDIA community forum, which try to re-sign the existing firmware. But modding support may not exist for all older models. You'll have to browse the NVIDIA forums for the latest details.

Assuming your GPU can't be updated, the last resort is to prevent the PCA 2011 from getting revoked by Windows. This is acceptable, since you've already installed the updated CA 2023 certs.

Run this command as Admin:
Code: 
schtasks.exe /Change /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\PI\Secure-Boot-Update" /Disable

I have the same question. EVGA 08G-P4-2172-KR Geforce RTX 2070 8GB vid card

Is there a way to undo my Revoke (YELLOW dots), and is that the best move?



EVGA said this (via email, just now)

Hi Mike,

This card already supports Secure Boot and all Nvidia GeForce cards starting with the GeForce 700 series have shipped with a firmware/vBIOS that supports Secure Boot so we do not have one to update it from not supporting Secure Boot to one that supports Secure Boot. To enable it you would need to go into your motherboard's BIOS and disable CSM, enable Secure Boot, and disable Fast Boot then save and exit for it to take effect and from your screenshot Secure Boot is already enabled.

I apologize for any confusion.

Regards,
EVGA

Only problem is... this motherboard "likes" to have CSM enabled.
Fast Boot is Disabled and Secure Boot and CSM are enabled.

Brb, I double check BIOS settings...

In your case, PCA 2011 has already been revoked (we know because you have a SVN). So if don't see any problems right now, then you're not susceptible to the problem. The problem happens as soon as CA 2011 is revoked.

Besides disabling Secure Boot mode, someone could reset their certs back to the CA 2011 factory defaults, which allows the legacy NVIDIA firmware to continue working.

Yeah, but I was wondering if the OP was asking if a GPO was available to block revocations. I don't believe there is one explicitly for that step.

My GFX card (MSI GeForce GTX 1050Ti) has the same problem. I revoked PCA2011. After that my BIOS complained about incompatible gfx card vBIOS. I have all of the updated secure boot certificates. I had to enable CSM in BIOS. Problem solved. I don't know if it is easy to break a system through GOP's outdated certificate.

I thought GOP as they were asking about updating it.

Anyway, official and unofficial tools to update GOP on older cards is at reddit.

After Googling a bit... it seems that various sites call it GPO and some call it GOP (go figure)

GOP is the protocol that UEFI uses in Secure Boot mode to communicate with 3rd-party devices like GPU's or storage controllers. If your GPU has the wrong signing cert, then your UEFI refuses to talk to them and your GPU can't display video while in BIOS.

Separately there are a handful of Windows GPO's to manage the Secure Boot task's behavior.

So the question may play out as "my GPU is signed by CA 2011, and won't talk during GOP, and therefore is there a GPO to block banning CA 2011"... /ahem

I see a need for a clear cut topic/guide about this.
I nominate... you, as this is above my pay grade. :-)

Just in the past week, I've 2-3 topics about "black screens".

It seems that if this problem occurs due to MS's certifications idiocy... we won't be able to SEE the BIOS, to disable Secure Boot, if needed.
