Yes it is possible but I think that it would be easier to just re flash with QFlash again.

Dual BIOS is just that you have the Main working BIOS and a secondary Backup BIOS for if something goes wrong.

Sorry I got distracted by Bob earlier and the BIOS.  Yes if you are sure that the module doesn't work when inserted then send it back or if it was a kit send the both back for replacement.

If you still have any problems post back and we will see what else can be done.
