NVIDIA Issues vBIOS Update to Fix RTX 5060 (Ti) Reboot Black Screens

NVIDIA released an optional vBIOS update on May 28, 2025, to fix a black screen reboot issue affecting RTX 5060 and 5060 Ti cards on certain systems.
The problem results from a firmware-level communication failure between the RTX 5060 series vBIOS and some motherboard BIOS/UEFI, especially in legacy mode.
To update the firmware, users should run NVIDIA’s dedicated UEFI update utility version 2.0 within the operating system while a functional display is active, after confirming that the motherboard BIOS is current and the system is configured to boot in UEFI mode.
NVIDIA emphasizes that the update should only be installed if users experience the black screen issue and warns that interrupting the firmware flashing process, such as through a power outage, could cause serious damage to the device.
This firmware patch targets only RTX 5060 series cards and suggests the issue stems from NVIDIA's firmware code, with users advised to consult vendors for legacy BIOS support if needed.
