J95 Posted June 11, 2014 Author Share Posted June 11, 2014 If the 580m boots fine using the above settings 'IGP disabled and PEG enabled' then unfortunately it looks like you have a faulty card. IGP enabled with an aftermarket card (680m) will end up with a black screen too.Primary Display -> PEG (not "always enable PEG" setting)Internal Graphics Device -> DisabledClevo/blue PCB from eurocom?

magusstorm Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 No this was a used one I got from ebay, although the first time I tried to upgrade the card I got was from eurocom thru the ebay store upgradeyourpc. That card was blowing my system up with blue screens and the support I got from them was the very worst, it literally consisted of asking me if I could boot into safe mode and then never heard from them again. I had to get ebay involved on that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattP Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I am a new arrival here. I found the information on this site helpful, and today I became a paid member so I can download.I have a M17xR3, Win7, and am attempting to install a GTX880m card (from a GTX460m). My take from the previous posts is the 337.88 driver is still the desireable one. No?Today I have successfully downloaded and unzipped the 337.88 driver from a link provided in an earlier post in this thread.I have been unsuccessful downloading and unzipping the associated modified nvdmi.inf file in the same earlier post. The file downloads, but when I attempt to unzip, it fails saying fiolder is empty.Can someone provide me with a working link please?Or... Is it possible for me to make the required changes in the nvdmi.inf file myself? What changes do I need to make? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattP Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Unfortunately for me your guidence is criptic. I would appreciate you being more verbose. Not all the way to the 'guidence for dummies level', but closer. That being said, I have tried your most recent suggestions, as best I could follow, and still am unsuccessful obtaining the contents of your compressed file. Same error messages prevail. Would it be possible for you to post a link to an uncompressed file so I can move on with this? The file size does not appear to be big. Thank you.
