Coffee candy, coffee (black), espresso, cappuccino, tea candy, tea, etc. Anything with some amount of caffeine. By the way, my name's Brian also.

Somik Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Thanks a lot 'Idol' for your reply. Hope all those coding pays off .... Can you just let me know if i need to buy the 1.3 setup as well or my laptop should be good without it. Also is the process safe? i mean i am a developer but have no clue about those steps at all - is there a recovery process in case i mess up my beloved laptop?

idol Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 @Somik regarding the setup 1.3 in my case i tried EVERYTHING but couldnt manage without the setup 1.3 (which rewrites de PCI allocation), so my advice dont go crazy and go for the setup 1.3, @Tech Inferno Fan its selling it here for the forum members, and you will feel great contributing for such and AMAZING job he did Regarding the ASML mod, just a regsitry backup will be enough but its more likely it doesnt compile or does anything (if you dont follow the steps PRECISELY) that breaks anything, dont worry, check the FAQS for the compiler error debugging, its imposible without it.

Hi Idol, I have the same issue. Fresh Windows 10. Elitebook 8460p 8GB RAM Stuck at "code 12". Did you manage to solve it with Setup 1.x? thanks" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idol Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 You are going to go to the 2 steps: -ASML mod -setup 1.x check the guides be patient, the good thing is that in the end will work ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balonik Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) Thanks. Do you have the EC slot switched to Gen2? I have lots of micro-freezes when on Gen2. Fine on EC Gen1. Even when on Gen2 I only have Bus Interface at x1 1.1 in gpu-z Edited August 10, 2016 by balonik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balonik Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Nevermind, using GTX 750 Ti I was able to get full Gen2 speed. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
