Afterburner monitor shows all clocks normal during 3dmark. Just eGPU usage its half of what it was.

It become slower since when I exit AC3 and it froze to black screen and I had to reboot

Re installed drivers and still slow.

I don't know what to do except reinstalling win

Edit:

Processor was running at just 620mhz. It doesn't anymore after using it without eGPU.

Its all good now.

My old rig:

inspiron 1720

T7500

8600m GT

4GB RAM

Windows 7 64

eGPU: MSI GTX 560 ti

be quiet 430W PSU

PE4h 2.4a x2 link on port 3&4

I've set up everything, got 3dmark11 score of 2898, played AC3 and NFSMW for a couple of days with no problems and sudden everything changed

From 30+ fps AC3 now is 10+ and 3dmark11 score is now 1212!

Everything its like before setup wise, compaction, x2 link nothing changed except its just slower

Any idea what can it be?

SCN000.BMP

Now I get Error 43

I've done as in troubleshooting:

1.done

2.done

3.

- Boot eGPU Setup 1.x,

- select Video cards->Load to load the PCI space dump created when it was working with no error 43. Done then press f3 to load in Setup.bat ( don't know if I should but it gets deleted after next step anyway)

- perform 32-bit PCI compaction on the iGPU+eGPU. 32-bit or 32-bitA All its not working. I can only do a 36bit for all and force one on 32bit (I've tried both in turns)

- select startup.bat->edit, remove the 'call vidinit' since it might interfere with your load dump. Done

- select Apply config.Run startup.bat Done

- select Chainload mbr Done

Error still there but moves from eGPU to dGPU depending on PCI compaction.

Its there any setting I'm missing here?

Thanks for your help.

Try the Video cards->Initialize function first after PCI compaction. If still get an error 43 then it may be because you have both a NVidia dGPU and eGPU. In which case I'd suggest modify the Verde (mobile) driver set to include your eGPU so as to get a unified driver set for both GPUs

It worked without modifying drivers!

Tnx Tech Inferno Fan

I'll try x2 link and then post " how to " eGPU Inspiron 1720

Problem solved using Setup 1.x

Solved installing drivers but there are different ones for every gpu.NVIDIA Control Panel its not opening and I have no way to change tv resolution to see if that's the problem

Now I get Error 43

I got everything ready and then got stuck at my first step.

First of all my system is:

inspiron 1720

T7500

4GB RAM

Windows 7 64

eGPU: MSI GTX 560 ti

PE4h 2.4a ec060a & pm3n

be quiet 430W PSU

Tolud is 3.5gb and I got in to some problems trying to do DSDT override . Basically my .dsl file its nothing like the one in the guide and I can't find the PNP0A08/PNP0A03 'DWordMemory' resource entries.

What am I doing wrong?
