Try tape your pin 22 http://pinoutsguide.com/Slots/mini_pcie_pinout.shtml. It worked for me for the freezing part. Looks like ASUS got mPCIe ports messed up.

But then my lap just refused to detect the eGPU, and both the GPU and the EXP GDC worked fine when I bought them separately.

Edit: I still use the Dell 220 W comes with the EXP GDC for my HD 7970, can it be the problem?

Thank you for the answer but it doesn't work  Do you guys have other solutions ? Because I really dont want to start looking for CPUs, motherboards to make my GC work..

Hi everyone,

I've recently bought the EXP GDC (http://www.banggood.com/EXP-GDC-Laptop-External-PCI-E-Graphics-Card-Mini-PCI-E-Set-p-934367.html) but, I have a big problem:

I have an ASUS N53S (6gb ram / i7 2630 / GT 540M), I plugged the exp gdc to the PCIe slot after removing the wireless card, then I plugged my Saphirre R9 290 Vapor-X (http://www.sapphiretech.com/productdetial.asp?pid=718897BF-E6D5-4C79-AA00-C1DC766ADF80&lang=eng) (with a 480W PSU), I plugged it with an HDMI cable to an external screen, but when I turn on the computer it freezes at the ASUS boot logo, or the windows loading logo, is this a BIOS problem ? Or is this a problem related to the 2 switches on the exp gdc? I think i've plugged everything fine.. I've tried on a friend's laptop (acer aspire ...) and it directly detected the graphic card.. When I plug off the adapter the laptop works fine but when I try to connect the graphic card it freezes.. I have also pre-installed the AMD drivers and removed the old Nvidia drivers, but maybe I didn't make it well. I've waited 3 weeks for this adapter and I realy wanna make it work, please help me, thanks guys
