Sure thing man I've only just noticed that Prema has posted the bios mod. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I will write back to here the minute I've flashed it

Hello again, Prema it must be said that your work on here is absolutely terrific and much appreciated. In waiting for the w350st bios mod to be unveiled I have since discovered bios mods for my old machine, MSI GX740. Just been sat in a cupboard gathering dust. Thankfully it's still as reliable as ever if the CPU isn't a bottleneck Anyway, peace out dude. Love the commitment!

This is Great! I've been wondering around the internet for a while now looking for a GX740 bios unlock and you've done it! Much love.

Ok, thanks man can't wait to actually control this bad boy how it needs to be controlled.

I currently own the model that has just succeeded the W350ET. I've scoured the internet for signs of a custom BIOS like Prema has created for the W350ET but to no avail. Are you working on any such BIOS Prema? These models have troublesome fan control and throttling problems and a bare BIOS. The one you created for the W350ET looks brilliant! Is it compatible with the W350ST?

Hello all, I couldn't find any other forum pages relating to this laptop: Clevo W350ST (Sager NP7352) So I guess this is for all those who are scraping through the interwebs to find some useful modifications for it. I have noticed many custom BIOS's made for Clevo models such as the W350ET and W370ET and was wondering if there was any word on the updated Clevo models? I currently own a W350ST (NP7352) and I must say the performance is remarkable! TECH SPECS: -INTEL Core i7 4700mq @ 2.40GHz turbo boost to 3.20GHz (4 cores) and 4600HD IG -8GB 1600MHz DDR3 (Slow timings but no matter) -2GB NVIDIA GTX 765m -256GB Crucial C300 SSD -1TB 5,400rpm HDD -640GB 5,400rpm HDD -1920x1080 15.6" Screen -Webcam, USB 3.0 etc -£980 when purchased Battery life can range from 45minutes to 3 and a half hours at a stretch Some concerns with it though: -The BIOS is bare and has no configurable options relevant to anything -The CPU throttles constantly despite temperature -The fan control is completely illogical failing to kick fully in even after the 4700mq has hit 95 celcius -The fan control doesn't seem to be determined by CPU utilisation either -The BIOS screen likes to display itself twice before booting -There is no way for me to control CPU features like Turbo boost or SpeedStep etc (Windows Power features and INTEL XTU do close to nothing to help with this) I find that I can play a game like GTA IV on maximum settings for about 2minutes at 50fps before the CPU throttles itself and decides 20fps is far better Even less CPU intensive games like Dirt 3 are affected by this throttling issue. I have tried using Throttlestop but it changed nothing, I have unparked all CPU cores and still no difference. Aside from these issues though I figured I could bump up the GPU clock by modifying the VBios using Kepler BIOS tweaker, which unfortunately cause of CPU throttling makes no substantial difference to frame rate. I have found a website that holds the current updated bios versions for the W350ST: W35xST/W37xST Series I want to be able to customise this bios as 'Prema' did with the W350ET so I have access to as many features as I'd see on a Gigabyte z68 board for example. Has anyone any ideas on how to achieve this? Prema? Anyone?

I currently own the "W350ST". Can I use the BIOS you're sporting for the W350ET on this machine? I would like to set my own fan control parameters as there doesn't appear to be any logical pattern currently. The CPU will happily hit 95 Celsius before the fan spins up to it's max speed, The CPU can be at 100% utilization and still the fan will not kick in till it's throttling time. I've managed to play around with VBios settings getting a far greater GPU overclock using the Kepler BIOS tweaker but it appears that the CPU is the main threat cause the TDP of the heatsink can't handle the 4700mq. If your current BIOS for the "W350ET" works just as well then that'll do great! Otherwise is there any tools out there I can use to modify the existing BIOS from this page here: W35xST/W37xST Series ??? Thanks in advance
