Hello fellow tech enthusiasts, I could really use some assistance and insights on a problem I'm facing with my MSI GT72 6QD gaming laptop. Recently, my GTX 970M graphics card became faulty, prompting me to purchase a replacement GTX 980M. However, after installation, I've encountered a perplexing issue. The problem is as follows: 1. The laptop screen remains blank; there is no display whatsoever. 2. The laptop does seem to be functioning correctly as the external display (LED) works without any issues. After encountering these problems I decided to install vbios without having any experience and ended up flashing wrong bios, however I got the display but gpuz show GTX 980 without Physx and few other. Sequentially, I tried so many bios but none of them worked, came up with mismatch GPU, mismatch device ID, wrong firmware etc. Have any of you experienced a similar situation when upgrading a GPU on an MSI GT72 6QD laptop? Your valuable expertise would be greatly appreciated, and any guidance you can provide will be a huge help to me. Thank you in advance for your time and assistance..

Hello, I have just purchased this laptop and want to overclock the graphics card but haven't found any vbios made for this version of 970m mxm model which is on msi gt72-406. This is an earlier version of the laptop and does not have the 970m with 6gb VRAM. I want to overclock this card so I can maybe get it to the stock version of 980m or higher, so that I can get better fps in latest games i have not done this before and will be my first time if I need to donate to have this done I will do so also I will be able to upload the stock vbios here later today when I get back home here it is GM204.zip
