  1. Hi, yes had the main power out of the laptop. I still can't believe this thing. Grrr.

    The CMOS reset is a fool-proof method. If all else fails, perhaps try contacting the seller? Or you could flash a new BIOS onto the laptop.

  2. Apologize for the delays... Thanksgiving holiday, had family over for a couple of days.

    So these are all RAID versions of MSI BIOS's?

    Yes. If you don't have RAID, you can still set SATA Mode to AHCI.

    Xonar,

    There is an updated bios version from MSI for GT 60 series.

    MSI Global - Computer, Laptop, Notebook, Desktop, Mainboard, Graphics and more

    you might as well put the modded bios version with this one regarding the memory tweaks, cpu unlock etc... tnx

    Sure.

    Can I ask for a modified BIOS for GE70 with 660m?

    [ATTACH]5421[/ATTACH]

    Yep, I will.

    Thank you! It worked.

    Wanted to ask: can be heard on the MSI GT 683 can be put Ivy Bridge CPU if flash the modified BIOS. Is it really possible?

    No, never.

    Hi

    There is something strange with this new bios.

    The previous bios 10T does nothave any option to boot in UEFI mode.

    Cant install the 50T bios.

    I did ask MSI to comment and waiting for an answer.

    EDIT

    reading more on i it seems that new GT60/GT70 are shipped with a different bios which has a win 8 key embedded in the bios. Probably the 50T is only for GT60 shipped with win 8. If that is tue,Lets hope MSI will keep maintening both bios version.

    http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT60-0NE.html#/?div=BIOS

    Yes, if you look 50T/70T are for Win8.

    Is it possible to flash the BIOS from GT60 to GT683

    No. Don't do it.

    I don't understand why you are so insistent on a non-RAID version. What happens when someone adds a second HDD and RAID? Now they have to flash another BIOS. With the RAID-enabled BIOS all they have to do it set AHCI to RAID.

    Also, use the '@' to get someone's attention. For instance, @alkado will page you. :)

  3. Only 2 slots work with i5, it's 1333mhz but you can put two 8gb RAMs in those two.

    If you upgrade to a i7 you can use all 4 slots up to 32gb 1600mhz,

    Just did some searching because I was in doubt and you're absolutely correct. Wow, well time to digest the fine print:

    It supports a maximum of one unbuffered non-ECC DDR3 DIMM per-channel

    Haha, only one DIMM per channel, not the standard two (found in i7's). Nice call.

    Source

  4. Does anybody know if GT780DX will support more than 8Gb of Ram?

    I have read that only two of four slots will work with i5 CPU,

    so 2slots*4GB=max?

    I also wanted to upgrade RAM, but it seems there is no chance to do it

    Nope, all four slots should work (2 memory channels, therefore 4 slots in dual-channel). Also, 16GB is confirmed to work with an i5, not sure about 32GB though.

  5. Hi,

    I bought GT780DX, It is very fast etc :), but fan is annoying...

    Is it possible to make fan on GT780dx constantly blowing on slow speed when the laptop is idle and go faster when it is working hard with custom bios?

    or may be it is needed to flash videocard?

    Thanks

    Hi Serg, welcome to T|I!

    Unfortunately, the fan speed is controlled by the EC so you'll need to find a program to edit the EC. I have a link somewhere in this thread for it.

  6. I'm sad... I just purchased a Clevo P150EM with GTX 680M. If the 680MX does loads better, maybe a switch? Otherwise, I think I'm content with the 680M as it runs anything I want to throw at it so far.

    They are for iMacs and there's no proof that there will be a MXM version even. Don't get your hopes up.

  7. hello xonar

    congratulations on your accomplishments with modified bios

    is there any way to download the BIOS without having to answer 5 post?

    my English is very bad and I have to ride with the google translator

    I totally understand but I can hardly express quite

    thank you very much and greetings

    The only other way to download files is to become a T|I Elite Member.

    It really is not hard to make 5 posts. Just find a couple threads where you can contribute to the discussion and enjoy!

    No problem :)

    Thanks for the work.

    Flash went ok.

    Extra option seemsgreyed and dont open any submenu.

    can you double check?

    thanks

    Thanks, I will take a look to see if it can be enabled in "Main".

    Unfortunately, I have to continue bothering you with testing because my notebook does not have the same issue that your's does. Hope you don't mind.

    Regards.

  8. Just a question in case anybody knows, I have an MS-1762, will this allow me to stop the throttling of the GPU that occurs when running on battery power?

    Nope, nothing will. It's an Nvidia implementation.

    That's good news.. But wait, I have a noob question though... You said that the GT modded bios (30M version for raid NB) can be used by a non-raid GT models? just go to bios and manually set it to "raid" before doing the bios update? Then revert back to AHCI before you boot to windows? ThanksThanks for the infor sir. But what I am trying to say is that I have a non-raid gt60 version (.10M bios version) . Is this .30m raid modded version compatiblle with .10M? Can adjust in bios from AHCI to RAID before doing this modded bios update to .30M? Thanks alot

    Since I don't own a notebook with 2 different BIOS (1 for RAID, 1 for non-RAID) I can't tell you for 100% certainty, but no one has ever reported a miss-flash when I advised they flash the RAID version. The only thing that I think is different in the RAID BIOS is literally the addition the RAID option under 'SATA MODE' and sets it to DEFAULT. That is why you have to change it back to AHCI if you didn't have RAID enabled before (MSI assumes if you are flashing a RAID BIOS, that it is because your notebook shipped with HDDs or SSDs in RAID).You do not have to change anything before the flash, just AFTER the flash. Once your notebook boots up just spam 'Del' key the whole time (even if it goes to the Intel Boot Manager). Once inside the BIOS, find SATA MODE and you should see that it is now set to RAID. Since you were not using RAID previous to the BIOS flash, you will need to change RAID to AHCI. You only have to do this once and it is the first time your computer boots. If you don't change this, there is a chance you will corrupt your boot manager or data because the Intel Raid utility will try to create a RAID_0 array out of your HDD. Understand now?

    is it running in very stable? cause you Processor information can run up 32GB but on 1066/1333 only and yet you have 1600, i want to run use corsair vengeance 2x4GB but it 1600 and my motherboard and CPU only supports 1066/1333 also. you information will be a great help. thanks :)@Xonarquestion again and i'm sorry for not doing some back tracking on the this topic but is this also compatible for non RAID units for GT780?? thanks sonar

    MS-GT780/783(17''): .30H MSI GT783 Unlocked.zip
    Corsair Vengence will lock in at 1333mhz. This is because they don't have any XMP profiles so their frequencies are not adjustable through the BIOS. This can be overcome though, you can flash your memory chips to higher base frequencies and tweak their timings with a program called Thaiphoon Burner. You do have to pay for the program though and I've never used it, only read about it. If you know your notebook has XMP support and you want higher-frequency RAM (i.e. 1600mhz, 1866mhz or 2133mhz*) then make sure you pick up RAM with XMP profiles. There's only a select few on the market.*2133mhz is a stretch in most cases. The Sandy Bridge IMC can't handle it sometimes (especially with amounts greater than 8GB).

    @Xonarwell one thing for sure my 2 x 256GB vertex4 SSDs would support trim but its not being enabled because of old IRST OROM version (I assume)Yea Im running RAID0 with these SSDs and I#m looking to get the best out of them. I was wondering what IRTS version come with latest GT60 and GT70 versions...if these could be extracted and merged with GT683R...- - - Updated - - -my first thing Ive done was installed 32GB ram with all original BIOS and it worked just fine, I have only flashed to unlocked bios to tinker a little bit with my CPU settingsAlso can you guys see and tell if I have managed to raise the bar on the power limits to be able successfully OC XM CPU's?

    I've never looked into changing up the OROM, when I have time I can look into it, but it isn't a high priority for me. Sorry.Intel blatantly lied about Sandy Bridge's IMC capabilities. It can support 32GB as well as frequencies well beyond 1333mhz.With regards to Turbo, you're almost there. Just use the screenshot I have in my post above and copy those 3 values into the BIOS to achieve maximum turbo.
  10. dear svl7, could you send tweaked a11 BIOS & Flashtool via email or upload it onto smth like depositfile, please? neither me nor other our dell7720 forum at ixbt.com members just don't have 5 posts here, sorry.

    Why does svl7 have to continue bending his back for you? Is modifying the BIOS for free not enough?

  11. Maximum,

    Thanks for your quick reply! Do you think the unlocking of the bios is crucial for support of the ram speed and/or capacity?

    It's only necessary if you want to enable XMP profiles (i.e. RAM frequencies > 1600mhz). The rest is up to the IMC (Integrated memory controller) on the CPU.

    question related to GT683R bios, is it possible to merge newest IRST OROM in to GT683R bios and is it any beneficial regarding performance wise? I know theres TRIM support on 11.xxxx version IRST OROM but latest GT683R bios still has just 10.xxxxx IRST OROM... I would highly appreciate yous input regarding this, and I would be willing to do all the tests necesarry to see if it works. Im runing GT683R

    I honestly don't know, I haven't even thought about it. TRIM is enabled though... unless you mean for RAID Intel SSD's.

    Xonar ... Do you have a bios mod for msi-gt60 onc non-raid edition? Under bios settings, does it have multiplier unlock settings, memory tweaks etc? tnx

    Will have it tomorrow!! Along with the GT70, 1762, etc. Also, I will have the RAID version and you can manually DISABLE RAID in the BIOS. There's no sense in unlocking the same BIOS twice when you can just disable RAID and potentially enable it down the road if you buy a second HDD...

    About feature "TPL limits unlocked",

    where i can read how-to about that?

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]5334[/ATTACH]

    Then you use Throttlestop to force the CPU to Turbo and you can sustain maximum turbo indefinitely, unless you have thermal throttling.
