You lost me with section 18, what is this?

I think this is a driver issue. When I get a black screen in startup and reboot in safe mode I can do a normal startup. Will try different infs to get this working. Card can even be overclocked 🙂 https://hwbot.org/submission/5083625_gamer_3dmark___fire_strike_geforce_gtx_1060_(mobile)_9921_marks

I can install a driver with NVCleaninstall, but it doesn't state in GPU-Z it's a 1060 but Nvidia grafics device. Benching the card isn't a problem, but after reboot, lockup again. So card works. https://www.3dmark.com/fs/28412600 When I look up the card with GPU-Z, it's a 1060 mobile and a 1060 Max-Q Need to figure out what's wrong, I guess it thinks it has dual personality 🙂 Just installed the keyboard, so I can easly change between cards, for now.

I can boot in safe mode, so I guess the driver isn't modded correctly. I'll try again with another one.

When installing the modded drivers, I get a hard lock in windows. What's the problem?

Got the card working, bought a new AMD heatsink because the original one bends the card to much.

This is the heatsink I have. A18 LEFT NV 100W AT0 UN00 D0C0 // 0R5NKT - 3 pipes So I guess to clear some space, need to flatten the areas marked in red? Made the changes, installed the card but the laptop doesn't turn on. No beeps or anything, card dead? Thx.

Still have my 8 year old AW18 880m SLI in use for work. Bought it new, silly me but still love it! Wanted to upgrade it a few years ago but not much hardware was available back then except CPU. Through this forum I had seen the times had changed! 🙂 Started with the cpu, upgraded the 4900MQ to an 4940XM just last week and unlocked the bios. Now I want to upgrade to a 1060 (for now, RTX3000 later). Got it for € 150, so couldn't let this one go. Does the 880M 100w heatsink fit on the 1060 without hassle? Or do I need to take out the dremel? I'm an old retired overclocker, but the bug has bit me again 🙂 Thanks!
