Finally! I found out, that doing things in the right order sometimes helps ;-) After flashing the vBios in the first post in this thread a clean install of the NVidia-Drivers was needed - and suddenly everything (including Display Port and laptop display) work fine. My mistake was, that I flashed the vbios over and over, but there was no automatic detection of the activated diaplay port. So thanks a lot svlt7 for providing help and bios! Regards WAHNfred

I've bought it in the bay from eurocom as a special upgrade kit for the m15x, but the bios says DELL. I am confused - Is there any way of determing, who manufactured it, so I can search the net for an apropriate vbios?

So I have got a DELL card - but a newer revision, right? Is there any other Keppler bios around which might fit (650m, 680m)?

Hi, thanks a lot for this guide. Especially the hint with the copper shim... I have still got a question though... I have been fiddeling around with the vbios of my card: - the card (eurocomm) had an original vbios (see attachment)GTX 660m_org.zip, where - as you said - only the vga port works and the laptop display stays black, though NVidiaInspector says it is a DELL card... - I was able to flash the card with the Clevo 660m rom provided in your guide. Result: the laptop display works, but the display port has no signal - the vga port neither - I tried to flash the card with the OC vbios (NVidia GTX 660m VBIOS -Overclocking Edition [DELL]; Source: T|I Dowonloads) and an original DELL vbios (Source: T|I Thread about M18x)but i get two warnings saying: WARNING: Firmware image PCI Subsystem ID (1028.0551) does not match adapter PCI Subsystem ID (1028.02A2). WARNING: Firmware image Board ID (E00B) does not match adapter Board ID (E001). After confirmation of the PCI Subsystem override with 'y' the nvflash terminates with the message "ERROR: Board ID mismatch" (see output) C:\Users\wahnfred\Downloads\nvflash_windows_5.118>nvflash -6 "Dell GTX660M 80.07.39.00.0F VBIOS.ROM" NVIDIA Firmware Update Utility (Version 5.118) Checking for matches between display adapter(s) and image(s)...

WARNING: Firmware image Board ID (E00B) does not match adapter Board ID (E001). Please press 'y' to confirm override of PCI Subsystem ID's: y Overriding PCI subsystem ID mismatch ERROR: Board ID mismatch The first warning is not unusual... but the second seems to mean, that I am trying to flash a non supported board, right? So, do you have any idea, how I could get my Laptop display _and_ the display port up and running? Kind Regards WAHNfred
