A few months ago, the 580M in my P170HM3 I purchased in 2011 died. Bought a 580M off ebay, made sure it was the correct version and that it came from a Clevo laptop. I'm sure the seller could have lied but I made the swap and for a few months everything has been working fine.
About a week ago I started getting a weird issue where the screen would go black and three lights on the right side of the laptop would flash with a loud beeping noise. Fans would jump to 100% and the laptop would eventually shut down.
Why is this happening after so many months of working fine? I thought it was a driver upgrade but I completely wiped Win10 off my system and installed a fresh new copy of Win7 with no luck. Same problem.
I did some reading here and I am wondering if a Prema EC + BIOS might help me out.
Current versions:
BIOS: 1.01.02
KBC/EC: 1.00.05
vBIOS: 70.24.2B.00.06
Any help would be much appreciated
