    Cleared CMOS and sometimes it reports Nvidia gfx and sometimes not

    I’ve run into another problem with my M17x R4, and I honestly don’t know what to do now. 😞 I recently got my Quadro RTX 3000 repaired, and the GPU was working again. However, when I came back to use the laptop a few days later, the Quadro was no longer being detected. I checked the BIOS, and under Discrete Graphics it says “Not Detected.” Windows only shows Intel HD Graphics 4000. I tried reinstalling my original GTX 765M to see if the Quadro was the problem, but the BIOS still says “Not Detected” with the 765M as well. I also tried a full power reset, but it didn’t help. At this point, I’m wondering if the MXM slot or something on the motherboard, such as the GPU power circuitry or PCIe connection, has failed. I haven’t confirmed the cause yet, though. It’s frustrating because I just got the Quadro working again, and now another problem has appeared. Has anyone experienced something similar on an M17x R4? Any suggestions on what I should check next would be greatly appreciated.

    How do these people get the 1.47V reading? I'm stuck at max 1.281V!!! I used Prema BIOS V5 from 1/03/2015 with 1.03.03 EC. I just want to have 4.2GHz without any errors on TSBench.
  5. Mr. Fox
    Probably so. Unless it is priced like a 9950X3D2 (or worse). The thing I like a lot about the 270K Plus is that it performs better than 9950X at half the cost, and overclocks much better (both CPU and memory).

    Ahh, you will miss it in a couple months when the 24 core 48 thread 10950x drops 🤣

    That's not a normal behavior. Did you use the DDU tool to remove the previous Nvidia drivers? Did you try the card in PEG LVDS? I never received such error with any cards such as the Nvidia GTX 980M, 970M, P5200, P3000, RTX 3000, RTX 5000, RTX 3080, RTX 3060, RTX 4070, RTX 4080 and 4090 MXM cards. Did you try the card in another system? Do you have proof that this card worked before with Nvidia drivers?

    Hi @SuperMG, I entered it manually per the screenshot. Built the package and ran it as administrator. Unfortunately the installer failed (no NVIDIA GPU detected on your system). Maybe it's because I am getting code 45 in device manager? The GPU is hidden in device manager. When I first installed the physical gpu into the mxm slot and booted it, it appeared in device manager as a normal working device. Then when I restarted the laptop, it appeared greyed out and hidden in device manager with the code 45. This is most likely causing the problem. Is that normal behaviour when installing a GPU that was never officially supported for a laptop?
  9. SuperMG
    Yes you can manually do it. Normally it should SHOW the GPUID on the software.

    Hi @SuperMG, Thanks. I've looked at your PDF. I came across one issue. On the installation tweaks page, step 3 where your guide says click on Installed: Dev_ there is supposed to be a device ID. However, I do not have a device ID showing there. It is blank. Is that an issue? Can I just manually fill it in? See attached screenshot. Thank you!

    Use nvcleanstall software. Your method is obsolete. I have a PDF instructions manual for it, page 8: https://drive.google.com/file/d/12J9CSd7BccNmFtcskdBwuiTa_AJhyyZG/view

    Okay the laptop is all back together. I followed mrfox's instructions. Turned it on, beeped continuously, restarted, quickly put a stick of ram in, then it beeped 5 times. Turned it off. Turned It on. Booted into windows. And now device manager is showing Microsoft basic display adapter THANK YOU. Now I am trying to mod the .inf file. I downloaded the oldest driver for my 980m (572.83) on the NVIDIA website. When I run the driver, I see the NVIDIA folder appear in C drive. I tried to mod it, but I could only see GTX 980 and 980 Ti, I couldn't see 980m. So I just edited the bits for the GTX 980 but I was unsuccessful, the driver still failed. Also, the devices at the bottom of the .inf file only had the device ID, not the other 8 character string (system ID?) that usually comes after the decide ID. So I have downloaded 5+ newer drivers, but none of them have the NVIDIA folder appearing in the C drive, so cannot mod the .inf files. I will keep trying to download more drivers until one has the NVIDIA folder appear again and try to mod the .inf. It should be possible.

    Hi guys. Has anybody a modified Bios to support NVMe SSD‘s?

    Good news for ASUS Z890 mobo owners. The latest version of Dragon Ball reads memory timings correctly, unlike the crappy new versions of ASRock Timing Configurator and ASUS MemTweakIt. There is also a new version for AMD available. I downloaded it for the Unify-X and was happy to see it worked for the Z890 Apex. The only thing I have missed from AMD ownership is ZenTimings and now that is a non-issue. https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threads/msi-dragon-ball-and-dragon-power-for-z890.405338/post-2390679

    NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Ti Gets Nearly 80% FP16/BF16 Compute Boost With Linux-Based Unlocking Trick That said, the GPU Unlock currently supports Linux only and works with GeForce GTX 900, GTX 1000, RTX 20, and RTX 30 series GPUs, while the RTX 40 and RTX 50 cards aren't supported.

    Hello I do have an RTX 4070 MXM with the backlight mod if you're interested to upgrade from your failing 980M. This card worked on my P775TM1, P870DM-G and Dell Precision M4800. You could also upgrade to an i7 8700K 6C or to a Xeon E-2286M 8C mutant CPU by modding the BIOS and blocking some pads on the CPU.

    Just removing the cmos battery will not clear your bios. Scroll up and follow Mrfox's guide to clearing it. Changing the cpu should have done it also!?!?...weird.

    I have an octane 2 pc specialist laptop that i want to upgrade because the gpu is failling Specs •980m 8gb mxm b(failing) •i5 6600k •32gb ddr4 2133mh •1 tb samgsung 850 evo(failing) •P751DM mobo •15.6 inch screen •battery(fucked) I am mainly trying to replace the gpu, cpu, screen and ram. I know that the i7 7700k is the best cpu i can easily get but i was wondering if their any mods for my mobo that could allow a better cpu

    Eban - I'm looking at your comment from 4th October. You mentioned secure boot should be turned off...but I'm confident it has been turned on this whole time 🫪. Surely that alone is not causing my problem? I found the link you shared for creating inf file. Will try that out as a backup. Motherboard is out and replacing CMOS battery now. Thought about upgrading to 32gb RAM while it's opened up but ehhhh 16gb is still enough these days...
  24. mattalienware
    I've decided to just disassemble the laptop and take out the CMOS battery and replace it with a new CMOS battery. Hopefully that fully wipes the firmware settings and when I turn the computer on, it will reconfigure and recognise the NVIDIA gpu. I have this feeling that unsuccessfully mucking around with Nvcleaninstall messed it up for me. Does anyone know to how to mod an NVIDIA driver? I will try that instead this time and avoid Nvcleaninstall.

    Right in time to push up the prices before we see 5080@24GB at $3000 at the cheapest. This starting be an sickness. $1470 for xx70Ti class cards is just disgusting. Asus Im looking at you🤮 Sad seeing China still being prioritized. But important if you want highest possible ASP for your products globally. I expect also many of the cards will come from Microcenter (they stopped the sale on some sites but with stocks available that none could buy). Creepy business blessed by Jensen and his partners (AIBs) +retail😒

    Hey, How did this work out? I am thinking Zorin 18 will work perfect for this device. I have it on a dell inspiron 3169 touchscreen 2 in 1 device and it works great. Touch and flip works as intended on my system.
