your link does not work mate.
Hopefully the spark did not come from my r4 motherboard 😄
Dead motherboard within an hour of testing would've been really unfortunate 🤔
LVDS are all TN 60Hz. But some of them are really good. Caveat will be angles & coloration: usually no more than 65° and 6 bit panels
Getting a V3 motherboard is way to go as you have edp 40pin, which will allow you to get any 2 (maybe even 4) lanes edp panel
Hi mate, wonderful machine!
You still need to edit your topic and put a price tag on it. It's mandatory here.
Better choose a high one to keep margins for negociations 🙂
hi,
there's a BIOS crisis recovery method that works well on m17x r3 / r4 or m18x r1 / r2.
It only requires USB thumbdrive.
CH341a also works, but requires disassembly of the laptop.
maybe the guy who sold you the laptop left both cable plugged but anyway, there's only ONE plug on the back of the screen (LVDS or EDP) so the other video cable was left unplugged in the back of the screen lid.
ALL AW17 rangers have both LVDS & EDP connectors on the motherboards. For edp options, you have either the 30pin (60hz) or the 40pin (120hz+ or 3D). For LVDS, it's 40pin 60hz (NOT compatible with edp screen).
