I pointed out that if the registry DSDT override doesn't work then use the in-memory method instead. Just note the precautions there.. you must make the replacement DSDT table smaller than the original and you must load it into the correct memory address.

I cannot advise you about R-W everything use. Perhaps seek contact with the author if can't make any headway.

I got R-W Everything work so now I can confirm that the DSDT table was pulled while first putting it into the in-memory and then chainload with "testrun" into win10 using the setup 1.30. But then again the ACPI Error bluescreen is showing. So is there something wrong with my dsdt.aml table file I am building?

I tried creating the new dsdt table using your approach as well as the one here (http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/3539-guide-dsdt-override-simultaneous-igpu-dgpu-egpu.html) which is a lot faster and easier (but also correct? especially the "fix error" part I am a bit unsecure about).

And the only error I am getting (in both approaches) is:

Name (_IRC, 0x00)

"Reserved name must be a control method (with zero arguments)"

..and some warnings and remarks but those I can ignore right?

The thing is when I click "fix errors" in the DSDT Editor it does something but the line does not change. Is the tool creating something elsewhere to fix it?

Edit: ok with a diff tool I saw that it "fixes" it with changing the line "Name (_IRC, 0x00)" to "Name (IRC, 0x00)"

But that is not an actual fix right?

Without the tool I used the fix I found on "Brightbulb" which is not online anymore, but was especially for egpu with x230 16gb ram and worked before yesterday:

• It is unlikely this will succeed first time, as the compiler is very strict. In general warnings are acceptable, but errors may require some fiddling. In the case of the X230, I had one error:
  

dsdt.dsl 7429: Name (_IRC, 0x00)

Error 6103 - ^ Reserved name must be a control method (with zero arguments)This error refers to line 7429 which contains

Name (_IRC, 0x00) // _IRC: Inrush CurrentUsing a patch I found here I changed this line to read

Method (_IRC, 0, NotSerialized) { Return(0x00) }

Is that valid? Are both working?

EDIT:

About the size, the resulting dsdt.aml is 62kb and the first dumped dsdt.dat file is 69kb so all good right? But Reading this I am a bit confused because when I first did this months ago I in windows 8.1 I had to delete the Win95/WinXP/... entries to make the file smaller and to get it working. Why not anymore? Win10?

If the registry DSDT override doesn't seem to work in Win10 then apply a in-memory substitution in Setup 1.30 which will remain in place once you Chainload to Win10. Details of how to do that are at http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/7476-%5Bguide%5D-dsdt-override-fix-error-12-a.html#post102526

That I do not get. I mean the substitution is in place otherwise why would I get a bluescreen, or what do you mean?

And how exactly do I chainload into win10? I mean what options in setup 1.30? Just doing the "testrun" in chainload after i did the "pt MEM ..." command in the setup 1.30 command line?

I also have the problem that the R-W Everything today just opens, fills my 16gb of ram completely and then gives an error after clicking the "ACPI Table" button. What can i do about it? Yesterday when I first installed it, it worked fine.

Hi

I have a problem concerning my setup with thinkpad x230, 16gb ram, i7 and GTX 970. After an odyssey with @Tech Inferno Fan without getting setup1.30 to work(thanks again for the patience and all the help ), I finally got it working with a DSDT Override manually. It worked fine with windows 8.1 for quite a long time and I could even plug and play the express card while running windows. Then I updated to windows 10 and even then it kept working awesome. But today after like 2 weeks of gaming pause I tried plugging it in again and it did not work. So I looked if the GTX 970 is still in the device manager. BAM.. Code 12 again.. So tried hot plugging while booting in bios and all that stuff I had to try month ago.. without success. Then I saw that there is no "large memory" (which shows after DSDT override) anymore, so I thought the testmode is off, but it was not (or at least it showed on the bottom right corner still testmode on. But to be sure i activated again and tried, no success. Then even though i really didnt know anymore how to do the DSDT Override anymore I found the old links I'd done it the first time with. I even tried several approaches but all just give back "ACPI Error" Bluescreen after reboot so I had to recover windows...

Am I doing something wrong?

Is the new windows 10 preventing the DSDT Override?

Do I need other tools than the ones for win8.1 for compiling and all the loading tables stuff?

I think the Lenovo BIOS updated at some point recently, could it be that?

Any ideas? I would really appreciate.

Thank you.

Hey,

I plug in right after the "to interrupt normal startup..." comes up, which would result in either a BSOD or error 12 if I didn't do a DSDT Override or use Setup 1.x to "disable" the iGPU like in the link of my edit 2. You need to pay for setup 1.x, so contact @Tech Inferno Fan if you need it.

Ok I did that but like I said, if it boots then I get the "code 12"/"error 12" in windows then. So you suggest I have to buy the setup 1.x and that will fix it?

Is there somewhere a guide or can you give me some hints how to use the tool then?

I run an x220 with the same zotac gtx 970, and experienced similar symptoms which leads me to believe its not an issue with the dual TOLUD.

When I start up the x220 with the card plugged in from the very start, the system hangs before it even reaches the BIOS startup screen. To bypass this, I just hotplug right after the BIOS screen shows, which still allows windows to detect the card (which he does end up doing) . My system needed a DSDT Override and PCIE reallocation in setup 1.x to fix a bunch of bsods with memory allocation in win8 (should also fix the error 12). Hope I could help.

EDIT: I'm stupid, edited some stuff above

EDIT 2: this guy ->Thinkpad X230 eGPU 100% CPU load — BRIGHTBULB might help if you can't do a dsdt override. I'd find that hard to believe since I've done it by hand with both the x200 and x220, but if its not possible/not an option that guy offers a nice "solution".

Hi,

I am that german dude Eisbrecher99 was refering to.

I still haven't figured out how to get my setup running

Am I inserting the express card at the wrong time maybe?

Could you watch the video of my startup (

) and tell me maybe the second where you are inserting the card? I cannot find the right moment. Either the boot hangs up before windows starts with a black screen(like in the video) or it boots and the card is recognized as it is but with code 12. Is that right like that and I have to do something with setup 1.x ? I havent done anything with it yet. Where do I get it and will it help?

I hope someone can help me, i am quite frustrated already and soon I will not be able to send the parts back so i have a 450€ worth paperweight

Thank you so much
