I am seriously not happy. And I'd prefer to hear from some one in addition to nando please.
My setup:
zbook 15, akitio box, 500 watt psu, and a GTX960 4gb . (EVGA).
Thunderbolt 2
Windows 10.
I was advised that since it was in the same family it'll be PnP. I validated that a 970 works after the advise from nando was to get a different card because my 760 apparently has a different architecture. Fine whatever, I saved up, bought a 960 after Nando said it would work. Got it setup, followed the same setups he gave me, of just using Setup 1.3 to disable the Dgpu, and it detects it, it sees it, it installs the drivers for it.
ERROR 12. Again.
Worse yet, when I boot up with the TB2 cord plugged in, it doesn't get to windows. It either blue screens or it hangs on the windows screen.
If I hot swap it, it disables my freaking WIFI and all my USB ports. So how this is suppose to give me the same results as the 970 which was a sweet and effortless plug-in-play I don't know.
AFAIK error 12 means not enough memory resource, have u tried DSDT override?
hope this help

I just can´t generate the aml file, some errors and warnings....HELP!!!!! ---- UPDATE!!
I really need some help to put my T430 working with eGPU, i´m getting the error 12 and DSDT Override is giving me errors when try to compile to get the aml file, what have u do??? Since we have the same laptop could u provide me the aml file to upload to registry??
--- UPDATE!!
After a fresh win 8.1 install, i still not get the gtx460 to work, i get stuck compiling the dsl to aml file, gives me 2 errors and not sure where they are, is anybody here who could repair a dsl file???I have T430 and DSDT works for me here is my .aml file, but I cannot guarantee this will work for you (atleast work for my T430 Windows 10)
**see attachment

My eGPU setup is not working right now, but I have override the DSDT successfully on this computer.
In order to do it, get the last IASL tools: https://www.acpica.org/downloads
Get the lastest WDK fo Win 10: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/hardware/dn913721.aspx
Now, thx to SBP for the biggest part of the solution.
Use iasl to drop your dsdt.dat and generate the dsdt.dsl with it.
Now, do the trick with the QWordMemory.
If you try to compile, you will get an error, something like:
Name (_IRC, 0x00) // _IRC: Inrush Current
Find this line in the .dsl and replace it by:
Method (_IRC, 0, NotSerialized) { Return(0x00) }
it should compile but the trick is to use this new .aml for his table.
Install the WDK (10) . Open a admin cmd line and go to: Program Files(x86)/Windows Kits/10/Tools/x64/ACPIVerify
Put your .aml also in there but rename it! Let say: new.aml
Now run asl /u new.aml
A .ASL will be created, open it and try to find the table _CRS. If you did the QWordMemory correctly, the table value will be : 0x1ee.
DO A RESTORE POINT!
Now, extract your actual DSDT using ASL: asl /tab=DSDT
You have the DSDT.asl.
Find the same table and it should be smaller. Replace it carefully.
Now, compile the .asl: asl DSDT.asl
If it crashes, it's normal! Why I don't know, but I know how to fix it.
It is a problem with ATMC(). It is not defined.
Search in the .asl for all instance of ATMC and you will find:
\_SB_.PCI0.LPC_.EC__.ATMC()
The first part is actually a header, the same as C++ for ::. You need to update all your ATMC() with this.
Be careful, You will have ATMC WITHOUT (). DO NOT UPDATE THIS ONE.
Compile again the .asl and it should works.
Load the .aml:
asl /loadtable DSDT.aml
And use the signkey:
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
Reboot!
If you have a bluescreen again, remember the restore point!
But for me, it works and I can assign my eGPU to 36 bit using setup 1.3.
(Check attachment Large Memory)
Sadly, my eGPU doesn't work I don't have any errors anymore, the eGPU is place on the large memory, but I don't have any display)
Here's my actual situation:
- The GPU is connected to the adapter (PE4H)
- The Card is powered by a 6 pin connector and the PSU is 550W.
- The display is plug (And the display works normally using the docking station of Lenovo.)
- My driver are up to date
- The device manager list everything correctly
- I have Windows 10
- No display is detected by the "display settings"
The GPU-Z tools give me my model, but some settings cannot be found.
Check attachment gpu-z
Did anyone knows what the next step could be?
Did you tried updating that PCI Express Root Complex(right click --> update) ?
I did and it changed to "PCI Bus" I don't know if this is relevant or not. because I don't have any EXP GDC or BPlus to test yet.
** I also have a question regarding DSDT.
Can this DSDT Override works without having to go testmode ? because the watermark in win 10 looks annoying...

I have an alienware m14x r2 with a intel i7 3630qm with 12gb of ddr3 memory and a geforce gt 650m would I be able to overclock both the cpu and gpu if I installed a modded bios?
I don't know about the CPU but you can try download Intel Extreme Tuning Utility to do that.
As for the gpu, yes you can overclock past +135 Mhz with the modded bios

Hello techinferno folks, I am having trouble with my m14x
title says it all, details :
I was using A13 unlocked bios from svl7 (credits to him for making awesome bios mod), and I changed the video settings in advanced tab menu
from 64MB pre allocated DVMT to 1024 MB DVMT, applied the settings and suddenly my M14x won't boot up just a 3 secs light on the keyboard nothing on the monitor (no bios) and then it turns off.
since the main cause is my settings in bios, I also remove the CMOS to normalize the bios settings (3 times, the third time was removed for 4 hours) and it didn't help at all.
I have tested on PC wether its CMOS related or not by removing CMOS battery on my PC, result was my PC still showing the BIOS. Conclusion : CMOS have nothing to do with this.
I assume my bios is bricked so I googled and found out that I can flash my bios with USB Flashdrive (formatted to FAT32) by downloading the BIOS and renaming to PALB0X64.fd
and stick to USB 2.0 Port press END while plug in the AC adapter, my fan went crazy but there is no beep sound whatsoever to indicate the flash process is running,
so I renamed the file to PALB0MEC.fd and M14R2.hdr <-- still no beeps at all. but the fan went crazy (I'm using A08 Unlocked BIOS to flash the laptop.)
That's it. hope someone can help me without changing the motherboard (no money at the moment)
P.S I'm not covered by warranty so calling dell won't help

So it seems that I've gotten everything working, but nvidia inspector still isn't letting me edit the temperature throttle, other then that it seems like everything is working.
use dell nvidia 331.65 driver, it helps remove the throttle temp goodluck.
-
hello everyone, I just want to ask why my nvidia inspector doesn't apply the new clock without ac adapter plugged in? do you guys having the same issue to apply the new clock? (I have unlocked my bios)
-
I notice overclock the core doesnt change anything when I'm not using AC adapter,although your GPU says the right number after you OC'ed. is it just me or..?
-
I was having the same issue as stated above (using win 8), but it just dissapear I dont know how and why but what I do is reinstall soundblaster driver, and update windows whenever possible.
-
i just wondering if i can remove the soldered GPU and change it.... because i saw r/c service shop they did remove the soldered things from the board and manages to stick it again lol
-
basically if your budget is limited i suggest you find a laptop within your budged range with best performance in the market so you dont have to regret it later
but if you're so crazy about the looks of the AW go for it.
P.S if u ask worth or not it depends on how you use it daily.

I'm using MSI afterburner to ramp up my cores to +135 and mem clock +1000 but my fps did not do significant changes i use latest nvidia beta driver to run Assassins creed 4 settings at high no AA
fps around 17-24 when.and my temps were 69 at max
i need help to add some fps
Edit : I just flashed my bios to A13 unlocked (thanks to svl7 for the work and Eats7 for the tutorial) and add +1000 to mem clock and +240 to core clock AC4 runs at 22-28fps however that settings cant be use when you plug your AC adapter it just crashed and you need to end task via task mgr, and I found my sweet spots using AC adapter is +100/+1000 and it runs at 24-31 fps when in action.
Edit 2 : I just found something that really bother me, if I +clock speed without AC adapter, it just wont go up in fact, it just capped at 745Mhz in msi afterburner(although gpu z is showing your real settings, but your performance is like 745Mhz) but the memory clock is fine and show exactly the same as your settings in afterburner.

i use stacks of books that makes the air vent breathable it really helps my laptop cool, and i use standing fan to direct the airflow to my laptop

I have my M14xR1 for over 2 years now and now I had enough of the Optimus. When trying out Saints Row 4, I set the graphic option to auto-detect, and guess what happen, fps is like 3. So I reset the game, make sure that I choose Nvidia card, same thing happened. Is this because 555m can't handle the game, because I really don't thing that's the case. I know it's old and all, but still, it's not that old, right? Also, no matter what I do it seem as if PhysX must be process by CPU or something.
So really I have two questions. First, is the one in the tittle and second, is it really Optimus or is it my m14x?
try to update your driver, or you can go to nvidia control panel and select saint row, you can adjust what to use

So currently I'm looking to get a new laptop preferably a gaming one due to the performance on those monsters, I mainly play LoL, dota 2, l4d, crysis 3, tomb raider etc. I have narrowed my list down to 2 different types of laptops but before you know them can someone answer me if a refurbished laptop is worth it? I see brand new Alienware 18s for 2.5k and refurbished ones for 1.6k this being the Alienware 18 2013 model..
Alienware 18 2013 (refurbished 1.6k)
i7 4700
Nvidia 765x SLI
1080p
Clevo p157sm (brand new 1.5k)
i7 4700
nvidia 765
1080p
Im also crazy about looks of a laptop I usually aim for the stealthy looking ones :/ asus g750jw.... But that has no access to the internals so scrap that idea. Out of those two laptops which is the better one for me? Thanks alot
if you're crazy about the looks of a laptop, alienware suits you more than clevo. besides the 100$ differences for SLI is worth though
