Hi

Is anyone who can response to my question. May be is todifficult or to silly?

I am green in this subject and I couldn't find answer.

I want to change original MSI bios from one to otherversion. But they say: “...- If the notebook you purchased has Win7 Biosinstalled, please DON'T attempt to update using Windows8 bios (or vice versa).Failure to abide may result in bricking your system...”.

"bricking your system" mean Windows or BIOS. IfBIOS is it true? There is no way to Change it?

MSI GE60-0ND

Thanks

Bios level. Basically as Bios on shipped windows 8 is EFI you can't upgrade a shipped windows 7 laptop with a windows 8 bios except playing with the files. One guy tried and bricked is laptop.

Not sure if you can upgrade a shipped windows 8 laptop with a win 7 bios but I will not even try. Maybe you dont brick the laptop in such case but I am not sure to whatwill happen to your windows key and activation.

According to MSI both BIOS are the same except the Windows 8 protection system.

Hi, i have problem on gaming. When my laptop is heating my fans not working %100 and performance going down. i'll try this mod

IS that heat or throttling ?

you can also try the Beta EC that you can findon MSI forums.

Not sure if it helps for throttling but seems to ease for GC OC.

Xonar,

There is an updated bios version from MSI for GT 60 series.

you might as well put the modded bios version with this one regarding the memory tweaks, cpu unlock etc... tnx

Hi

There is something strange with this new bios.

The previous bios 10T does nothave any option to boot in UEFI mode.

Cant install the 50T bios.

I did ask MSI to comment and waiting for an answer.

EDIT

reading more on i it seems that new GT60/GT70 are shipped with a different bios which has a win 8 key embedded in the bios. Probably the 50T is only for GT60 shipped with win 8. If that is tue,Lets hope MSI will keep maintening both bios version.

I'm really bad with deadlines, sorry mate.

There should be an option under Advanced called "Extra". When you go into Extra it should take you to a new subfolder with a bunch of CPU options and memory timings, etc, etc. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

No problem

Thanks for the work.

Flash went ok.

Extra option seemsgreyed and dont open any submenu.

can you double check?

thanks

No, I apologize for the inconvenience. I've been out of town for the past week. I promise by Friday

This Friday ?

Hi Xonar

Did you have time to make it ?

Thanks

Hi

Same with the GT60 no menu to change RAM speed ...

Only able to overclock CPU so far

Stayed tune then, I should have a new one with memory options within this week. I'm awfully busy right now.

Hi Xonar did you have time to look into it ?

Thanks

Thanks Xonar.

Which notebook? Some notebooks don't have the Chipset tab & memory options available. If it's a 3rd gen Intel notebook then I believe that I have a work-around to the memory settings menu missing. If it's a 1st-gen notebook, you're probably out of luck (Although some 1st-gen Intel MSI's can accept the barebone BIOS which has the memory settings in a user-accessible chapter).

It is a GT60

Thx

I did flash withput any issue and was able to overclock the CPU.

I dont find the option to set memory speed. Can someone point it out ?

thanks

Thanks for the work Xonar.

Will test the GT60 bios later today. UDS 5 donation was quicker then 5 posts

a couple of question

I currently have the 10M bios (not the original 30M), but there are already a RAID option in that bios. I did not test it as my setting is not RAID. IS the for display only ?

Is that correct to assume that your modified bios isworking fine with the Beta EC released by MSI

BETA EC for GT60 (16F3) & GT70 (1762)

BETA EC for GT60 (16F3) & GT70 (1762)
