  1. Maybe the added components influence the addressing... Or is it only the amount of memory?
  2. Could you please give me some details about your config? I am curious why we have a difference although we seem to have the same device... I have an i5, no dgpu, no cardreader, no fingerprint reader and did the initial config with 4GB of RAM (but upgraded to 8 lately).
  3. I also have an E6430, but only with an i5 and no dgpu. I am running Win8.1 and had to do dsdt override, but besides this, no further modification was needed. Keep in mind that for dsdt override to work, you need to enable testsigning in win8 and win8.1!
  4. Yes, tried every combination of uninstall/reboot/reinstall/prev.version... I won't reinstall my OS because of a stupid benchmarking component. Skyrim is working @1600x900 on my internal LCD , so I'm finished. If anyone has any other suggestions for fixing SystemInfo so I can contribute my results to the database here, please let me know!
  5. So I got pissed with the performance of the 560Ti and sold it, now there is an MSI GTX 760 Mini in my EXP GDC and an additional 4GB of RAM I still have a problem with 3dmark (every version), but managed to do a run with 3DM11: Generic VGA video card benchmark result - Unknown,
  6. I have no clue what happened, but no version of 3dmark is able to run properly anymore Each and every one of them starts with crashing the Futuremark SystemInfo process... Several rounds of reinstall (even the drivers) did not help, so now I'm giving up. Windows reinstall is a nogo atm, and of course I did not made any system restore points... Without that component, my results are not valid and have no hw details If there is anything that doesn't use the SystemInfo component, please let me know!
  7. So I finally managed to do some tests... Seems my setup is performing according to what it is capable bjorm has a similar setup to my, so I did some comparisons just as you suggested. Dx11: Result DX9: Result I may need a better GPU? Funny thing is that neither the cpu fan nor the gpu fan are dialed up during benchmarks...
  8. As far as I know, the Macbook Air does not have an expresscard slot and the mpcie implementation is also a nogo. And also afaik there is no thunderbolt version of the EXP GDC. How are you planning to connect the external gpu?
  9. No, not me - it was not convincing enough for me based on the pictures so I went for the EXP GDC. But two local guys were complaining. To be fair: In the meantime it turned out he had some kind of life issues so we shall wait and see...
  10. Yes, but atm you should not order anything from him - seems the guy is offline and not shipping/responding to paying customers
  11. Please let me know if I should post this to another topic... So about performance: I ran 3dmark and got disappointing results. My igpu did around 40k score at the Ice Storm test and the egpu GTX560Ti scored only 18k: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti video card benchmark result - Intel Core i5-3320M Processor,Dell Inc. 0CPWYR Is this normal? Any suggestions what I could configure differently?
  12. Nando4, thanks! I tried DSDT override yesterday without success, but today I found an MSDN article where it is explained that DSDT override is disabled in Win8.1 by default. To enable it, you have to switch testsigning ON via bcdedit. After I found this out, everything went smooth Now the card is recognised and I have no error12 anymore. According to GPU-Z I am at PCI-E 1.1 x16@x1 1.1 Update: With some load according to GPU-Z the bus changes to PCI-E 2.0 x16@x1 2.0
  13. Hi All, I have an error 12 with the following setup: Dell E6430 - Core i5, 4GB RAM, only igp, MBR EXP GDC with Expresscard MSI GTX 560 Ti I need some assistance where to start fixing my issue...
  14. Well.... Error 12 here, so I will need to do some wizardry to get it working Dell E6430, only igp, and only 4GB RAM - I was hoping I will avoid getting here... Seems Win8.1 was a bad choice for this setup. Anyone can help me out? I started reading the instructions but got lost after a few steps. Isn't there anything that doesn't need me to alter system files?
  15. I just got home with a nice MSI GTX 560 Ti wish me luck, I will set it up and report back in a few minutes.
