I sold my W230SS to friend, and he doesnt like to tweak anything. Stock bios would be nice but last time i flashed it broke ethernet. Got some error messages from bios on boot. Cant remember was that stock bios from clevo or from prema. is the EC different between these or something? And then theres the black screen bug which is annoying.

I just came into my pants.

I'm using Windows 7 so non-uefi mode. Maybe Windows 9 when it comes.

So there's no problem on FHD-panels because nobody isn't compaining. There was somebody else with wqhd panel who has the same problem... Was quite exciting when I made raid and restored windows installation.

Well, that fan is controlled by bios, nothing else. Reason for that behaviour is maybe that your vsync is on, on the other test and vsync off on other. If vsync is off, gpu will be hotter.

Great!

Any news of new biosmod version for the w230ss? It has the no-picture on warm boot bug.

This keeps dGPU usable on battery, and with geforce "battery boost" it gives full performance which is quite awesome. I can play grid autosport or metro: last light on battery but it drains really fast and becomes extremely hot, scary... I can live with that 1.4ghz limit on cpu but hd graphics 400mhz is just too low. by the way, few reboots and windows is now shutting down normally and intel xtreme tuning utility works. dont know what happened...

Uninstalled hotkey, didnt help a bit. CPU clock still down to 1.4ghz and intel hd graphics clock down to 400mhz. Installed hotkey back and now intel xtreme tuning utility isnt working anymore and windows doesnt shutdown anymore, halts at shutting down. Shit.

But i'm quite sure that on battery it's not about power when intel hd graphics doesn't use turbo anymore.

Interesting... Do you think it is the same with W230SS? On AC I think it's at full power, clocks stay high, no lags and so. But on battery, CPU maxes @1.4GHz and Intel HD Graphics loses it's turbo which is annoying because with AC it runs old games quite good.

Yes, so we have the same problem. So waiting for fix. Anyway, thanks to Prema for this great bios!

I'm not using UEFI, Windows 7 64bit. If I explain this way, there is no backlight in laptop screen until windows desktop. It's dead, nothing, blanko. Only I can see is blinking harddisk led. Am I really the only experiencing this?

I did use QHD-version. I cant get picture whenever restarting, sometimes i get picture when i shutdown and turn on. i always get picture when i shutdown computer, pull battery out, press power button to drain all power, battery back, power on. Is there anything to do with processor whics clocks dramatically down while on battery? Especially hd graphics clocks down to 400MHz and windows aero gets sluggish, and even old games doesnt run. But when I plug AC then hd graphics runs older games nicely. Of course geforce will run anything on battery...

Anyone having this problem that I cant get no picture on boot? Now flashed back stock bios and this problem fixed. But now it says every boot PXE-01: PCI-vendor and device id's do not match. And I lost my LAN adapter. This is getting annoying, mod bios: no picture on boot, stock bios: no lan adapter. fuck.

Just got my XMG P304 and not sure which bios to use? There is W230SS with QHD and no-QHD. My screen is 2560x1440. EDIT: found my answer here: W230SS / NP7338 | Prema Mod EDIT2: Flashed bios and now I get picture only in windows, nothing on boot, and bios setup, screen stays black. Not even windows boot logo. EDIT3: Sometimes black, sometimes not, strange.

I didnt buy after all, it was a fake dealer and almost lost my money on that, that was close. So, i ordered xmg p304 from mysn.de, now waiting for that.

Hi! Just bought used MSI GT70 with GTX780M. And of course I want to unlock that VBIOS for some overclocking but not sure which bios to use?

What i did was i bend a little that metal panel to fix that loose touchpad.

Here: http://forum.techinferno.com/lenovo-ibm/4668-lenovo-y410p-y510p-unlocked-bios-wlan-whitelist-mod-vbios-mod.html#post65200 But, just noticed that you have 755m, not 750m like i do. Dont know if it matters, because only difference is clocks...

I used ocz freeze. There is pads for gpu memory chips. One trick is to lift laptops back up from the table. Gets much better air from below and stays cooler.

This was bought last august so bios was 1.09 stock. All I did was read bios, mod, flash it back. And for the sli-gpu I flashed already modded bios from this thread. Those graphics cards can not be undervolted directly, but, the trick is to use that temperature control in nvidiainspector AND overclock same time. Then the card will use lower voltage to stay under temperature limit and overclocking will compensate the lower clocks that this temperature limit will make.

There was something about fan in unlocked bios but i havent examined it yet. So, now running unlocked 1.09 bios and sli-gpus unlocked too. Got my temps down quite easy: 1. From Intel Xtreme Tuning utility, undervoltage CPU -100mv, and frequencys set 4 cores 2,9ghz, 3 cores 3,0, 2 3,1ghz and 1 3,0ghz 2. For both the gpus, nvidiainspector is the answer. lower the max. temp from 96'c to 80'c. And with overclock you can compensate that temp (and clock) lowering thing. So i got gpu boost 150mhz and memory 200mhz. Gpu stays below 80'c because of undervoltage. Sorry my bad english....

I think FarCry1 was the best game for me in 2004. Waited FarCry2 but disappointed, how they could made that game so boring... FarCry3 was even better than the first one. And i dont think that the short time between 3 and 4 is a problem, they have techical side already done, mayne its just some tweaking here and there for better graphics but story is new. Never played that FarCry3 "DLC", Blood Dragon. Any good?

Hi! New member here and lots of questions. Just bought an Y510p and been struggling with high temps so far. Crysis3 just melts the whole thing. But, with battery, is there any way to do something for the very bad gpu-performance? Even a little? Of course full performance cant be done. The old powermizer tool doesnt work anymore.
