haXBOXpro Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Hey guys. I need some advice/help Currently using driver v365.19 on Win10 UFEI boot on my M18xR2. Gtx980ms have premas vbios mod v2. Only noticed the rare throttle here and there. Until I accidentally let it run and drain on battery. Now benching is impossible and games are near unplayable! I've tried running DDU and reinstalling drivers but no change. As I remember from long time ago as advised by @J95 there was a way to flush the cards or something to get rid of a 'fail-safe' that might be in place causing this nightmarish throttle. Unfortunately don't remember how I did this previously :/ Any help would be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another method If u are unfamiliar is to hold shift key while pressing restart. it should get u to the menu where u choose advanced startup option. And then "disable diver signature" by pressing the correspondent number, 7 I believe. Hope this helps. U can always Google for a better guide 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I followed instructions prior to pulling the card, everything worked great with the old 560m card, I pulled it, installed the 680m card, followed instructions again, however the card is not being recognized on my device manager and the installation of nvidia drivers won't continue because it cannot find any compatible hardware. I have pulled the card reseated it several times and still does not detect the card is installed. double checked bios and it's A12 version. with IGP disabled and video config set to PEG. currently using a microsoft basic display adapter...

Thermal pad placement...including thermal paste? - I put all new thermal pads on using a thermal pad placement for the 680m website picture (http://forum.notebookreview.com/attachments/680m-thermal-pad-placement-jpg.126047/). New Arctic silver 5 paste, i even pulled the heatsink last night cleaned it all up, i got a little sloppy yesterday, i was rushing to leave for work. got a little bit on the card itself, but that should be cleaned up now after cleaning and reapplying the paste last night. I seem to hit 78c and it will throttle back down to 60c, then back up etc. - I followed those instructions and I deleted the folders after the driver package from 7-zip installed them all. (not sure how i can delete them before they are installed???) - At idle right now the temp is 53C.
