Hi, i'm starting a new topic because i abbandoned the idea to put an old GTX 260m card on my laptop, so i decided to buy a newer one a nvdia GTX 780m. Searching on google i read that might be plug and play and i only need to mod inf. files to actually install the drivers. Now i came here and i see problems with audio etc...Do you reccomend me to install the unlocked bios version? currenltly i have the a12 stock. Do you think that the my current heatsink ( 3 pipe ) that i was using along with my old 7970m can fit into the 780m?

UPDATE: i tried to use LaptopVideo2Go: NVIDIA & Laptop News .inf modification and finally it recognize inside windows as GTX260m and i can open the nvidia pannel but there's only the power option.... i tried to use the hotkeys FN+F7 to activate only the Dedicated card but the pc won't boot and it beeps 8 times, that means no video card detected.... -

Hi recently my graphic card AMD HD7970m got video ram problem ( even checked into the dell test program when you boot the system ) and i found on ebay another video card MXM 3.0b, a GTX 260m with dell bios ( maybe from a m15x or even m17x ). After i mounted the 260m my bios recognize as Nvidia GTX, so i booted into windows and it says Standard VGA. i download GPUZ and it's an 260m, just to be sure. Here comes the problem every driver i tried it didn't work. i even tried to mod .inf files from the lastes driver but it does not work. PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0618&SUBSYS_05511028 anyone can help me?
