@Tech Inferno Fan Would this software that you made solve these problems? If this sounds like something that is fixable with the software, I'm happy to make the donation.

Hello, I'm new to these forums, but I found you through trying to troubleshoot my DIY eGPU. I'm having trouble getting my set up to work, but I'm hopeful that it's possible after finding this post middle of the page about an Alienware m14x. http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/2109-diy-egpu-experiences-%5Bversion-2-0%5D-427.html My Laptop: Alienware m14x R1- i7-2630QM 2GHz, Windows 7 64-Bit Home Premium, 8 G RAM (I think this might be the issue?) I have the two GPU onboards, Intel Graphics + Nvidia GT 555M. BIOS: InsydeH2O Version 1.0 A08 I'm trying to use: EXP GDC Beast- mPCIE - CPU: Corsair CX 430 GPU: GTX 970 I have an external monitor and hdmi out from the GPU set up as well. Now I understand that 970 normally requires a 500+ PSU, but that is for powering a motherboard and entire system, I figured I could get away with a 430 that I had, as the GPU only pulls 145w. I'm also getting full red lights and fan spins on the GPU, which I think indicates power isn't a problem. So using this set up, I'm unable to get my laptop to boot with the eGPU attached, I normally will get black screen and beeps, I've tried the standby/attach egpu methods to no luck. I'm struggling in part because the directions from banggood are in chinese and don't translate well considering the technical requirements. Additionally, I have two mpcie slots on my laptop. Ideally, I'd like to have this card go in the full size slot,(keeping my half size for the WLAN) but I know sometimes there is a problem with that being intended for wwan only. This is a fairly broad outline, if I can provide additional details, please let me know. I'm just trying to get this to work.
