Hi All, Tested EXP GDC Beast version 7.0 with GTX 750 ti using express card to the Sony Vaio VPCS125FG today and the Sony laptop was able to detect it with no issues through plug and play. With this test, I can confirm that the EVGA GTX 570 is cause of the problem of not able to detect eGPU in device manager through the Beast. As I am not too familiar with the tool setup 1.x by Nando, possibly that tool can help solve the issue and make GTX 570 detectable. Can anyone help to confirm this? Thanks.

Hi, Yes did that as well with no avail, then read someone played with CTD/PTD then plug out and plug in the expresscard and got the card detected. Tried this didn't work. On the fan, I meant i was using CTD/PTD option, I manage to make it fan spin while expresscard is in and when plug fan stop spinning then plug again the fan spins again without stopping. I now think it could be my bios setting on the Sony . It has no option to enable graphic usage for the expresscard. Wow didnt realise that GPUs can be that sensitive, you are right that it is tilted at one side as it is heavy, I will try this later today. This is a good tip thanks for this! EDIT (1): I've tried this still it didn't work, I think the following is the issue: For my Sony expresscard, I think it is bios issue For my Asus, I think it is the cable But this is just my 2 cents, if someone can give me more ideas, I can try, please help. :EDIT (1) I suspected as well that lack of power on the GTX 570 but it has 2 x 6 pin One other thing I was thinking, reading ady's message on the low cable quality, it could be the case on my beast cable to the ASUS laptop.

Hi All, I am a noob on this topic. I had read through all the messages this forum. I tried many options stated and tried, kinda of loss here. Can anyone help me? All my items are 2nd hand, and I am trying for some days now to get the egpu to be detected by the my laptops but with no success. I am not able to see the the GPU in my driver manager. Here is gist of what i have and had done: Setup: I am trying with 2 laptops (both have an internal geforce gpu) both came out with the same failure. Sony VAIO VPCS125FG using express card and ASUS X550LC using mpcie (plug to the place where the wifi was before) Both using Windows 10, Sony is home version and Asus is Pro version External PCI dock is EXP GDC Beast version 7.0, GPU Is evga gtx 570 and PSU is coolermaster gtx 650 w (52A on 12 v rail) i've plug in 8 port to the Beast from the PSU and plug in from PSU 2 x 6 ports the top of the gtx 570. Both laptop when i powerup PSU kicks in and the GPU fan starts and eGPU dock has redlight but on both occasions nothing got detected in my driver manager. I've tried the following: Scanned with Driver Genius, booster as well, not detected as well Tried disabling the internal ge-force as well and restart Tried the boot with Wifi , sleep then replace with the beast cable On the expresscard, tried to start the PC then plug in (GPU and PSU fan stop and start with no problem) Tried playing the CTD and PTD switches Can you give me some ideas what else should I do? Thanks. Cheers, Tan
