I think you have the same problem like me in the past in another thread. Mainboard is dead. You can try an I3-8100 to keep the costs low. I have a P775TM1-G to sell if you are interested in. Location is Germany 😉

Yes it’s also locked. But I read it’s only available up from 10th gen CPU’s, isn’t it?

Laptop sold

You mean this?

Ah ok. Thank you for the information

Is it approximately like the old M17/18X series? With that adhesive tape?

Ok. How did you remove the front bezel of the screen?

Did you send the 60Hz screen back?

Yes, he is that German guy from the Hardwareluxx community.

ok, then you are good to go. Please keep us informed if it works.

Ah ok. I have to check that. I´m on 1.21.0

Why you are on Bios 1.5.0?

Ok, then you have to disassemble your screen to check where is your connector. Then it would be easy

I read on reddit that it would be possible with this screen. But you lost G-Sync if that is no factor for you. Also you have to mod the screen cable a little bit. BTW: Do you have the R1 or R2?

Maybe try an older Nvidia driver and use Section 18 for use with Optimus.

Hi, I bought a R1 with 3-2-1 beep code and black screen. I flashed a dump from my working R1 and now the Alien is working again. But the Bios now is locked and I don’t have an admin password. How to solve this problem?

I can confirm what maxware said. Mostly it’s the gpu itself when you have this issue. But you can give it another try.

What do you mean with a „hard lock“?

It’s not that easy as I thought. Half of the screws doesn’t fit. First of all I need the sub assy to hold the Mainboard. Also the ribbon cables from the touchpad and the keyboard are in the wrong position. The chassis itself is possible with a little bit modification.

Price comes from you. You know them better than me.

What will you pay ?

Ok, thanks. I ordered also the R2 Heatsink. So hopefully the Mainboard fits then I will have an R2.

I bought an R2 Board very cheap. I will give it a try and give you a reply if it works or not.

I would not put back in this Battery. It is possible that you can get a shortage on the Mainboard.
