  1. I am not sure about what you have to do now, have you read thoroughly this thread? There is everything you need to know about flashing cards but if you haven't got the proper vbios..
  2. Hallo I ve installed a GTX670mx in a Clevo. Everything works just fine but if I connect a DVI-VGA adaptor, although Windows sees the vga connected display, the display itself does not recognise anything on its input. Here a thread with some info about what I ve done to get it working.
  3. Hallo everybody.. so nice to see that this worked out for others too, the card is running just fine and I d say a bit too cool, so how to squeeze out some extra clocks here? With Invidia Inspector I can just get a 315MHz increase maxing out at 750MHz. Is there a mod to unlock the card? tx Simone
  4. Hey, it is pins 1 and 4, chip select and GND. Just shortcut them before turning on. This is my howto as is.. work in progress blind flash.zip tch150 can you PM me an high res picture of the chip? that would be a nice add on for the howto. (mine is SMD package)
  5. Hi, sorry but I haven't seen your post before. I can't get a big enough picture of the K5000m to try to find out the eeprom chip so please if you are still trying to get it working try to snatch an high res picture of both sides. I was also meant to write an howto which I have not completed, coming soon. Simone
  6. Card is working ok now, at full GPU load temp. is just 60 degrees, so I think there is room for a bit of overclocking, since EVGA Precision ican't be used, what do you advice ? S.
  7. Fixed, the problem was not related to the VBIOS or anything on this thread but to the EVGA Precision / Windows 10 combination .. more info http://forum.techinferno.com/clevo/11170-possible-lcd-firmware-corrupted-due-nvidia-evga-precision-x-help-2.html#post149448
  8. Hi where can I find the EDID bin file for glossy display of P150HM AUO B156HW1 v0 ? Thanks Simone EDIT: I think I can get it from here ​B156HW01 V.0.pdf it can be retrieved from the table at the bottom of the document.. but how to make into a .bin file? S. EDIT 2: I managed to get a proper EDID and reflash the display.. what a nightmare ..
  9. So a few considerations for those who are facing a similar situation: the shortcut to overcome the VBIOS safety block has to be between Chip Select or Chip Enable and VSS/GND use a USB stick with freeDOS and a LED, this is importat as it is the only active feedback you ll have in the broken machine create the shortcut, hit the power button and wait for the usb stick led to show activity, that means freeDOS is loaded in RAM, after that you can remove whatever you were using as shortcut you can pipe info from DOS to a text file with the ">" symbol so to test that everything is ok do something like "DIR > dir_info.txt" then pop out the usb stick and plug it into another computer and see if in dir_info.txt you have the listing of files and dirs of the usb stick you can plug it back again (awesome), no need to restart the computer, it will recognize the usb stick and you ll be back at work on your faulty machine nvflash has got a -L option that stands for logging data, it s very useful to see what s going on ex: "nvflash -L mylog.txt -6 myrom.rom" then pop out and in the usb stick and check the mylog.txt file it will tell you how things went a friend ponited me to this great manual for nvflash it is attached here [ATTACH]16453[/ATTACH] if you don t say otherwise nvflash has a sound feedback, COMMAND - Enter - press Y - Enter - 3 beeps - press Y - Enter - wait wait wait - one beep - READY (the second Y I am not sure about it), it took me many tries to get to the second and final beep, I am not sure why it didn t work the first times, typos, not waiting enough, dunno.. @Prema, thank you now the driver installed correctly but I am not sure I am seeing the card running correctly, the main problem s that the laptop screen is not coming up, the HDMI connected is ok but the laptop display is not being recognized. tx Simone
  10. Before delving into the VBIOS flashing afterthoughts, it seems like I can't install the driver, I followed what Romulan wrote but I get an error
  11. Ok it wen through, I ll post later about the steps. tx Simone
  12. arr no dice yet! I do hit Y and Enter and I can see the usb stick blinking, furthermore I piped some nvflash commands to text files so I am sure that both DOS and nvflash are working correctly but when I restart I am back to the same point. How long should it take to flash the eeprom? Should it shutdown/reboot by itself? I ve also removed the power supply and the cmos battery. nvflash --check nvflash --list
  13. Still not working, maybe I am missing some steps. - I got the .rom file and I ve added it to the root of the USB stick - I turn on the laptop with the aforementioned technique - type "nvflash.exe -i 0 -6 GTX670MX.rom" - hit enter - usb stick flashes - wait some minutes - unplug the supply for 30 secs (no battery on this unit) - turn on again and I am back where I was before I wonder if after the nvflash command there is something else i have to select. tx Simone
  14. Hi, I think i have some important news here. -- first of all, this is a rather dangerous thing to do so beware -- I asked around and they told me that you can override the vbios safety check by shortcutting CS or CE (depending on the chip) with VSS/GND. That should let you pass POST. This doesn t mean that you ll get anything in your display, blind typing is needed anyway. So I got a shot at the GTX670m [ATTACH=CONFIG]16433[/ATTACH] the chip in question is http://www.zlgmcu.com/mxic/pdf/NOR_Flash_c/MX25L2006E_DS_EN.pdf , the needed pins are easily exposed on the outer side, I could have done with a pair of nail scissor i had at hand but I waited to go to our hackerspace to use proper clips and anti-static wrist band (just joking, I did it with the scissors and the laptop standing on its side...), so, just short-cut those 2 pins and turn on the laptop with your free hand.. The USB stick started to blink (goood) and there was nothing on the screen, I blind typed nvflash.exe -b backup.rom, (USB blinks again...), waited a while and plugged the USB stick on another laptop. backup.rom is there, so it looks very promising. Looking forward to flash the proper VBIOS now. Simone
  15. ok, as far as I understand, that must be somebody with an Optimus enabled motherboard right? So at least it can fallback to the integrated GPU? Where can I find the proper file for flashing ? Is it Clevo 670mx - 3GB - 80.04.58.00.03 - 'OC edition'_rev02.zip ? Thanks for the support. Simone
