AlexSuru Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Hy All, I installed sucsesfully A10 unlocked BIOS (from SVL7) and I upgraded the GPU to AMD HD 7970M (from 6870M). All was working except the CPU witch was downgraded to 800MHz (i7-2700Q at 2.2 MHz). I started the Overcloking in the BIOS hoping to have a better frequency. After restart my Allienware M17xR3 is just doing 8 fan speedups from time to time and I have no screeen (I can't enter BIOS). How can I resst BIOS to defaults (Overcloking DISABLED) because I have tryied nearly every step witch I found on the WEB with no hope: A) removed power and battery+removed BIOS battery+keep pressed power for 60 seconds - not resetting; removed power and battery+removed BIOS battery+keep pressed power for 60 seconds + removed memory modules (both) -Laptop makes 2 beeps - no acces to BIOS; C) removed power and battery+removed BIOS battery+keep pressed power for 60 seconds + removed memory modules (both) + removed CPU - Laptop does not boot Any other choices? Please HELP I'm stranded! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyB Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Remove the power, battery and CMOS battery and then bridge the CMOS battery pins on the motherboard with a screwdriver. This will reset the BIOS. If you still have a problem then you have a bigger issue. Also, try the forum at Notebookreview.com as it's still very active over there.

AlexSuru Posted October 15, 2019 Author Share Posted October 15, 2019 Did that and in combination with WIN + B sucsesfully started. At the moment seems that I ahave a problem with the new GPU. Thanks for the advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
