barnito Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I am stuck here with a previously working 880m in my m17x r3. Every driver I have tried errors out. The VBIOS screen shows up when booting, yet no driver INF mod will work for me. HWINFO reports the correct hardware. PEG enabled, onboard video disabled. Any help would be appreciated... Also I have been getting driver files elsewhere due to not being able to download from here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What bios Version do you have. Have you disabled the integrated audio? What OS do you use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoldago Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 What exactly happens when you try ro install a driver? Do you get a message that there is no compatible Hardware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoldago Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Ok, think you forgot to disable DSE. Driver mod should be ok because you pass the systen check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barnito Posted December 5, 2016 Author Share Posted December 5, 2016 What driver should I try? or is there a better VBIOS I can flash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnito Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) Edit2: Looks like the power brick has given up, it keeps powering off now, no led on the plug, takes time unplugged to get it to reset. I bet that was the problem all along, just took my burn in tests with furmark to get it to finally fail. Edit: I thought I had it by changing fan tables, no dice. gets above 80 then throttles Well it is still throttling at 78c, I think it is the alienware bios.... I can't find the correct bios to fix it... anyone know whats causing it? Edited December 18, 2016 by barnito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
