Wow, guys! You didn't tell me that in order to deal with this "DSDT Override", you had to know your way into the MATRIX! That's too complicated for non-professionals. Specifically talking, fixing the errors produced during "DSDT override" requires a decent coding knowledge, since the solution will be different for each computer. This incompatibility problem between the EXP GDC V7.0 Ares adapter and my computer seems to happen only with a few laptops, unfortunally including my HP Probook 6470b with i7-3720qm, 16GB RAM, Intel Graphics HD4000; Windows7 Pro SP1; Connecting through Express Card; Using an ATX 700W throughout these tests. I've tried to leave my laptop with only 2GB RAM, and yes, it works this way! Slow like the slowest crap! And even 3GB of RAM still produces the same faillure, and the same happened when I tried it running Windows 8.0, which should fix the problem according to some people. Since I gave up on the DSDT Override solution, would someone be able to tell me if I could get this external GPU to work in my laptop though some other method? Specially, is there a different adapter in the market that could work for my HP without these compatibility issues? Thanks!

Hi, folks! Here comes another compatibility problem with a EXP GDC V7.0 Ares. Funny thing is that both my laptop and graphic card have been previously tested succesfully by other users. I'm experiencing two different kinds of failure with the two different GPUs that I bought (I was so excited with the idea of connecting an external GPU that I bought two models, one AMD Powercolor HD7750, and one Geforce GTX570). The GTX570 is not even recognized. I've tried to check if it is pushed all the way into the slot, as many people mentioned, but there's no way to push it further. I've played a little with the little switch at EXP GDC, rebooting, reconnecting things, but nothing. No sign of life appart from lights on and the its cooler blowing. The Radeon HD7750 prevents the computer from starting if I leave the little switch to the right, but it turns on when I switch to the left. Although I don't get any video in the external monitor, the laptop recognizes the GPU, but some nasty issue keeps giving me the message that I have the wrong drivers, keeping that ugly yellow triangle on top of the Radeon video adapter, at the same time that Windows says that the driver is already updated. Yup, I have disabled the native video adapter, and it makes no difference. Following the last post's tips, I updated my BIOS, but that changed nothing either. I have an HP 6470b, i7-3720qm, 16GB RAM, Intel Graphics HD4000; Windows7 Pro SP1; Connecting through Express Card; Using an ATX 700W throughout these tests. Tried both HDMI and VGA adapter to connect it to a FullHD TV. Does my experience echo with someone else's? Should the newest BEAST model be a solution to these problems? (apparently HP has some compatibility issues with this gadget). Any ideas to make me a happier person? PS.: I`ve just tested the same GPUs on an older Sony Vaio VPCCW21FX with i7-620M, and the Radeon HD7750 worked nicelly, but the Geforce GTX570 didn`t show at Video adapters. That reinforces the idea that (most) of the problems are produced by some sort of HP issue. I`ll keep on trying more variations!
