did you try an older driver? it most likely is a edid issue , I haven't tried recently on my m15x to try my fix.
- Today
-
Okay so I tested with an hdmi cable on another screen and it outputs a screen after the driver is installed just for some reason on the laptops screen it stays black. I have been trying to use ChatGPT to help me and it claims it is the internal LVDS output
-
that's weird, I have that issue on M15x with 980m but never had that issue on M17xR3 using 980m/m3000m. try a driver older than the 550.xx series
-
Yeah I think it is full of dust since AGA sitting on this rug that shoots off hair like crazy. Need to clean it. -
The M6800 has 2 different fans for the GPU. 5.6 CFM and 10.3 CFM. I had a spare 10.3 lying around, a free upgrade from the 5.6 CFM.

i had my doubts cause AI said yes and sometimes no. and i needed to order one and get it by monday but all had delivery to august i guess comes from china in amazon. thanks
-
Your CPU score is normal now. However, your GPU score is low. I remember you previously scored around 30K with it. -
I tried using a M6800 fan in the M6700. They are physically similar enough to fit, and the connector physically fits into the motherboard, but Dell changed the pinout, so the M6800 fan won't operate in the M6700. This to say, I would not expect it to work just because they look the same.
-
Interesting because during the install I keep getting a black screen with nvinstall when the screen changes to apply the display driver
-
any driver. use nvcleaninstall to add hardware support to the official driver
-
I have a 880M running on my M17xR1. Single GPU. It does ocnflict with the internal hd audio, need to see if swapping the driver install order fixes white screen issue like on M17xR3. I think 780M should work & 680m without the hd audio conflict. You can reusethe heatsinks, I think the SLI cable form fermi to maxwell is the same but 260M is different

Hey what driver version were you able to get the work for the 980m and what did you modify on it

Recently, I got a good deal on an m17x r1. It has a t9600, and dual 260Ms, but one of the games I'd like to play on it has Kepler cards as its minimum. What's the best gen of gpus I can put in this thing? From poking around here, it seems like someone's gotten dual 670MXs running on one, and the r2 seems to have a fair amount of compatibility with newer cards, but I do want to see if I can push it a bit, say with a maxwell card. Also, will the old SLI bridge work on newer cards? Thermals, or heatsink compatibility aren't a concern for me either, I have a set of two MXM heatsinks from a laptop model I know can take maxwell cards I know I can modify to work with this laptop, and i figure i can get around what seems to be the dedicated fan controller chip's incompatibility with new cards thermal reporting by just setting a static curve, or making some other system that reads temps from the cards and adjusts the fans.

Not my best run but just checking out what CPU bump does. I can try and get a better run after getting the RAM speed up.
- Yesterday

just as the tile says are the m4600 fans and m4800 fan compatible meaning i could use the m4800 in the m4600.? they look just like the same.

Hello I want to buy a Clevo P775. I'm located in Europe. No CPU, no heatsinks, no GPU, no RAM. Just the laptop itself. I'm changing because I suspect some SMBus problem with the GPU side only. Like every GPU is stuck at 40C temperature meanwhile the the GPU-Z readings are accurate.

Yeah, I was definitely surprised to see it. I want to take it apart and swap memory but there is a factory seal sticker in place. Its MSI warranty expires in September 2026 so I provided the B&H invoice and was told I can extend it by two years for $140. However I want to be charged and have the extension confirmed before I open it up. B&H did have an AllState warranty option but those are $500 for two years (no ADH included) and less likely it could actually get repaired if the mobo failed. The stock memory is 2x32GB Hynix M-die dual rank. It actually was not stable at 6000MT JEDEC with VSOC 1.2v and like all of the new OEM ram I have seen is PMIC locked so no VDD/VDDQ beyond 1.1v. I am guessing / hoping the issue is just dual rank is harder on the IMC as the 2x16GB on the 5080 model had no problem running at 6000MT JEDEC. I do know that all of the 2025 and newer Raider and Titan models have upgraded fans with more blades and are much quieter. I think they also tuned the fan profiles though as it seems like the fans are not ramping up and down as agressively as before. Supposedly these newer fans have the same shroud, connector and power spec so they can be installed in the old models as well to improve them which is nice. The 2025 also has a heatpipe to cool the Gen5 SSD which is good. -

This is nice. And Microsoft is very helpful spread the malware. -
HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications

Welcome MODDER1, good to see your on the similar journey. SSD's definitely help the machine catchup to newer generations. Currently running 1TB samsung Sata SSD in mine with a 500gb Msata secondary drive. i do run the i7-3940XM CPU with my current k1000M GPU. I have the 980M SLI (same as KBX on here) card ready to go in, but am currently working on Chassis mods to allow dual fans (980M is a hot beast) to get the heat away so not yet running the card (KBX has his running and working on 1070M). The 980M mod requires the 8770W sink mod as its a "B" card and 8570W only ever shipped with "A" cards from HP, so to go 980M or any more powerful card you'll be collecting alot of parts 🙂 The 980M is the best you'll get without dreamcolour screens, others on this post have DC screens and have done more awesome mods and more powerful cards. -
Too funny, really messed up this AI bot.

If 0xA65 is not set to 01, none of the timings shown in the picture will be applied. That’s why the system fails to boot.
-
BIOS 1.9.3 becomes unstable at memory frequencies above 2666 MHz. You should downgrade to BIOS 1.7.3. If you do not enable 0xA65, you won’t be able to achieve higher frequencies because the timings selected automatically will not be appropriate. I tested this on BIOS 1.9.3 and it has limitations.

I tried 0xA65 = 01 before and my system failed to boot with blinking red alien head. (On BIOS 1.9.3 if that matters)
