Clevo P570WM MXM upgradability forum

[Tetsu]

I received a reply from ENBIK. The content of the reply was different from that of the import agent.

 

ENBIK said, "We cannot recommend your laptop as it cannot handle the heat."

 

So I told them that a user in Europe had a special heatsink that supports 150W.

 

I also asked them to provide just the VBIOS if they could not sell it.

 

I am currently waiting for a reply.

Thanks. If they don't give the VBIOS. Ask them you need it for backup reasons, to unbrick a MXM card. You can tell them, you'll pay them 50€ for one VBIOS.

 

If they don't want to give then you have to buy the MXM from them.

Hello, not really on topic, but I don't know where else to ask.

I wanted to upgrade the wifi card on my P570WM to 6E. Even though the card gets recognized in device manager, I can't turn the wifi on as the button is greyed out. The wifi now also won't work anymore if I put the old card back it. 

I basically tried everything like driver reinstall, cmd commands, uninstalling the card in device manager, network reset, complete windows reinstall but the card still won't work...

Any suggestion? Thanks

Because it's not compatible with the Clevo software. Maybe it has a whitelist on the software? Or just simply not compatible. I never tried to upgrade the Wi-Fi because my own ISP is like 250MBit/s

 

Also you can upgrade to an RTX 4080/4090 if you want, I have the cables and the heatsink.

Thanks for the reply. I can get it to show in the device manager and the bluetooth works great but only the wifi doesn't. But now the original card also doesn't work.

Did you uninstall the previous Wi-Fi drivers? Any wi-fi drivers should be uninstalled. Then install the newest drivers, it'll work with Windows hopefully but still won't work with the Clevo software.

 

You say it's detected but is there any errors? Like error 43?

Hey everyone.

I haven't received a reply from ENBIK yet.

 

However, when I tried to purchase it from ZRT through an import agent, I received a strange reply from the agent.

They said, "This product may infringe on NVIDIA's trademark rights." As a result, the quote was 0 yuan (0 yen), and I was unable to purchase it.

 

I also checked via chat and was told to inquire in advance with Japanese customs about whether it would be possible to import it, as there was a risk of infringing the rights of the US GPU manufacturer NVIDIA.

 

It may not be easy to get this product.

Hello, the same happened with X-VSION. They found a way to counter it. Ask them how to avoid that, maybe by sanding the GPU die or by removing the serial number label.

 

Or by changing shipping company and sending it from Hong Kong (instead of China) to Japan?

I unistalled everything, even reinistalled windows. I don't get errors I just can't turn on the wifi not with the new AX210 card and now also not with the old n2230 one.

The thing is that everything shows in the device manager as it should; it properly detects the new card as AX210 160MHz.
