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! Yes you can manually do it. Normally it should SHOW the GPUID on the software.
mattalienware Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago 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?

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?
