Just don't install precisionx, try out 368.33. >>Throttling workaround<< GFE is buggy as hell. ....... disable secure boot and keep it disabled, incl fast boot...

Just delete the proper folders before installing, avoid GFE at all costs...17k...

@Nikos4Life well done man, I meant 368.25 above...

BIOS Full UEFI? latest Prema's modded nvflash (included) should work fine in safe mode.

No problem... Try PEG MOD v368.25 ↓↓↓ Glad it all worked out in the end...nope?

@HaloTechnology *05AA* switch to dedicated mode -> reboot into Safe mode -> Flash vBIOS -> reboot.

Try NVFLASH_WIN_5.218_x64 (password premamod.com) GTX970M_6GB_MXM_OC_PM_v2 When prompted...type Y to override PCI subsystem ID mismatches. Yep >> GTX980M_8GB_MXM_OC_PM_v2 <<

Avoid GFE at all costs...instead, use MSI AB v4.2 (see warning above) or Bandicam / Action. Device manager -> Disable 970M Latest GPU-Z -> dump current vBIOS -> check vram '6GB version'. Copy extracted "GTX970M_6GB_MXM_OC_PM v2" to desktop (GTX 970M 6GB) Rename .rom "970M.rom" GTX970M_6GB_MXM_OC_PM v2 -> SHIFT right click "Open command window here" nvflash.exe -6 970M.rom Type "Y" twice (to override PCI subsystem ID mismatches) "Flash successful" -> device manager -> re-enable 970M -> reboot *otherwise* repeat the steps above.

78C way too high/stock clocks, even for a 560M 75W heat sink (proper heat sink 580M/675M 100W #MT1DN), clearly poor contact between the GPU die and heat sink + components (thermal pads) or heat sink radiator incl fan are clogged with dust...GPU fan working correctly? 1- After extracting driver package delete the following folders: Display.Optimus Display.Update GFExperience GFExperience.NvStreamSrv GfExperienceService LEDVisualizer MS.NET MSVCRT Network.Service NV3DVision NV3DVisionUSB.Driver NvVAD ShadowPlay ShieldWirelessController Update.Core 2- Display.Driver folder, copy/overwrite nv_dispi.inf -> run setup.exe

Thanks man...3DMark crappy update, they removed both GPU core clock and vram monitoring graphs.

Device manager, please post HWID (560M). 120Hz model does not require flashing BIOS.

Which model? 60Hz (Optimus) you will need to flash A12 unlocked BIOS. BIOS settings: Second Advanced menu, Video configuration "disable IGP" (HD3000) and set "Display to PEG".

You will need to flash A12 unlocked BIOS. BIOS settings: disable IGP (Intel HD3000) and set display to PEG. After setting display to PEG HWID 04BA will change to 0490.
