I'm running 1600x900 @ 80Hz. At 85 when I clicked the test button my monitor went blank.

Ok, this is still happening. I was playing thru the Hallowed Hallow in BL2, and all of a sudden my FPS dropped into the teens. According to HW Monitor my GPU temp had reached a max of 75*c, and pulling up nVidia Inspector showed my current core clock at 405mHZ.

eBay or equivalent will be your best bet. Lenovo has stopped producing and selling Ultrabay modules (including the GT755 SLI modules), at least here in the states.

I've got a Y410P with a single GT750M, and I'm using nVidia Inspector mostly to undervolt to keep temps reasonable (-75mV). I've also tried a +100mHZ on the core, and +100 on RAM. It was stable as a rock, but now all of a sudden the GPU won't clock higher than 405mHZ. If I revert back to stock clocks and voltage it makes no difference. Updating my nVidia driver helped for a few minutes of gaming, but now it's right back to 405mHZ. GPU temps maxxed at 76* while playing. What gives?

Edit: Played around a bit more. I loosened up voltages and clocks and rebooted. I played a few minuted of Planetary Annihilation, and it seemed alright.

You need to use Nvidia Inspector. 1.9.7.3 was just released.

Cool, downloaded! does nVidia Inspector apply at startup, or do I need to leave the app open? (I don't see an option to "Apply at Startup", so I assume it has to be left open in the background)

I have GTX880m Sli and I recently loaded SVL7/JohnKSS's vbios and have found by recommendation that EVGA precision X works great for setting the power target, temp limit, turbo clocks offset and the voltage. If it doesnt let you drop as low as you want with a custom vbios and that software then modding the bios further may be needed to achieve the voltage you may need.

I don't see anyway to reduce voltage using that utility. I'd like to get closer to the GT650m's 1.0 voltage to reduce temps a bit under load.

My Centrino 2230 worked fine gaming online and using a bluetooth Orochi mouse at the same time. Make sure you using the latest drivers.

What software are people using to under volt the GPU?

I am curious on how you resolved this since I am getting the same error. I tried searching the forums but I didn't find a resolution.

Just download MSI Afterburner and you will be able to overclock your gpu a bit. Intel extreme tuning utility if you want to overclock your cpu as well.

I should have said I'm interested in undervolting the GT750M. I've already got the CPU undervolted with XTU, and I'm running SVL7's 3.05 molded bios.

Is there a guide to OCing the Y410p?

Woohoo! svl7 rocks! Got it all sorted out.

I had purchased a TP Link Archer C7 v2, which ended up being a waste of time. The router frequently disconnected from WAN. Exchanged that for a Netgear R6300 v2 that I'm so far super happy with. I'm still not able to backup my Bios so I can remove the whitelist to install my AC7260.

I PM'ed @svl7 3 days ago, and haven't heard a response yet.

If I tag him in a post like this does he get a notification?

Follow this link . it contains a file saying error 104 fix .

Hope it helps

Kind Regards

I've tried that. I get "Error 51: An attempt was made to read beyond the end of flash memory".

Trying other things... I installed the intel chipset drivers from the Lenovo support page and reflashed the stock V3.05 bios. I also enabeled backflash. I still get that damned 104 error. The only anti virus I run is Windows Defender, and I've tried disabling that.

I already had bios backflash and secure boot disabled.

Anyone?

Have you PM'ed @svl7 yet?

Yup, but I'm 6 hours behind him. He's likely long since asleep.

Have you tried the 'Error 104' Fix yet? In the attachments here:

Using the either of the above 104 fix fparts... "Error 51: An attempt was made to read beyond the end of flash memory".

I don't get it. What's unique about my laptop?

I'm trying to flash svl7's latest Y410P bios to my machine. All I really need is the white list so I can install my Centrino AC7260 card. Anything extra is just a bonus.

I've downloaded and flashed the stock Lenovo 3.05 bios, downloaded FPTW64, and run it from an Admin command prompt. It returns "Error 104: The 2 SPI flash devices do not have compatible command sets."

I've since flashed to the stock Lenovo 2.07 bios and tried to make a backup of that. I get the exact same error. I've attached a sccreengrab of the error.

I've tried flashing the stock 2.07 bios to see if I can back that up, but I'm getting the same 104 error as when I tried to back up the 3.05. I've got a shiny new Intel AC7260 and AC1750 router that I'm not able to use

i still dont understand: 1) - Create a backup of your own BIOS (now v3.05) by using this tool.

Extract the files and run the included .bat file from an admin command prompt.

can anybody clarify to me?

extract (unzip) the files from the link, press Alt-F-M-A (opens an Admin command prompt in your current open directory). Type backup.bat and press enter.

Let me know if it works, I get a 104 error.

I've flashed the stock 3.05 bios from the OP, and I'm trying to make a backup using the backup.bat from step 2. I did launch it from an elevated cmd prompt, but I'm getting error:

"Error 104: The 2 SPI flash devices do not have compatible command sets."

Any ideas?

I use Intel's eXtreme Tuning Utility (XTU) on my Y410p. Not much is grayed out, but all it can basically do is reduce your turbo speeds (allows you to set multiplier per core during turbo boost), and reduce CPU voltages. Since you're not using an extreme or K series chip you can't increase voltages or overclock. I've reduced my vCore by 80mV, vCache by 80mV, and IGP by 80mV. I also reduced max turbo under 3 and 4 core loads to 30x. That seemed to keep temps low enough to keep my 4700MQ from throttling.

TS made a special post about the SLI version. So if you have a SLI version you download the SLI version in every other case you download the OP version.

TS? Do you have a link? A quick google yielded this thread and a bunch of Win8.1 SLI fixes.

How is the cooler on the ultrabay graphics module? Is it as sloppy?
