Indeed! It works!

I found a way that the eGPU works! Boot into Setup 1.3, Menu Based 64bit address room for the iGPU Force 32bit room to the eGPU chainload windows and VOILA! The eGPU works. Now my iGPU has error 12 but who cares? I'm gonna test it some further Thx everyone, especially Tech Inferno Fan!

@Tech Inferno Fan "pt MEM writefromfile 1 0xDAFE9000 dsdt.aml" 'works', but Windows won't start - only a BSoD... Maybe the mistake is in my dsdt_....dsl File. Like described here: http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/2109-diy-egpu-experiences-%5Bversion-2-0%5D-264.html#post82012 If I use your iasl.exe from that howto-package, my dsl compiles. If i use a newer iasl.exe Version from 2013 oder 2014 I get the error messages like in my post above. Is there a chance to fix this error? Or is there another opportunity to create an error-free dsl file that I can compile to this needed .aml file? Edit: Even a non-edited dsl File won't compile... Same error.

OMG. I can't be so damn stupid Must be a hard week.. ;D I'll give it try... Edit: @Tech Inferno Fan The first five steps cant be executed in DOS mode. The 'pt MEM writefromfile ...' command was executed in the Setup DOS prompt.

@Tech Inferno Fan It did it like 10 times now here are some Screenshots. edit: sorry, i dont know how to make thumbnail views for the screenshots edit2: now i used a newer version of iasl from this site: https://acpica.org/downloads/binary-tools Now, it won't compile. edit3: The line where the error shows up is (7160):

It doesn't I did exactly as you said. DSDT substitution, chainload mbr. Then i can choose Boot Win 8.1 or Setup. If I choose Windows and the Expresscard with the eGPU is plugged in, BSoD. if it's not connected, Windows starts up, as soon as i plug in the Expresscard, BSoD with the Error "BAD_POOL_HEADER". And there's no 'Large Memory'...

Thank you for your reply. I'll test it, when I'm at home later in the evening (CET).

Hey guys, i'm the one with the T530 and TOLUD problems. My latest try: I used this howto (http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/2109-diy-egpu-experiences-%5Bversion-2-0%5D-28.html#post31421). My TOLUD value is 0xFED40000 ~ 4GB. My DSDT table starts at 0xDAFE9000. I installed Setup 1.3a. With 'iasl -g' I created the dsl file and edited it with the QWordMemory entry. 'iasl file.dsl' complied without errors and i got the dsdt.aml file. I rebooted into Setup 1.3 selected 'Start Setup 1.x with command prompt' and executed "pt MEM writefromfile 1 0xDAFE9000 dsdt.aml" - no errors. After that, with F10 I started the menu-based Setup and selected the "PCI 36-bit PCI compaction" on the eGPU and the "Force 32bit" on the iGPU. Till here it worked flawlessly. With a chainboot into Win8.1, I get a BSoD or my notebook just restarts. Any further ideas? :/
