mobile.jeremyk Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Hello everyone, I am new to the site and a bit of a hobbyist repair guy. I have stumbled upon a R5 that had a fried 770m. I had a GTX 675m from a MSI GT60-0NF and was hoping i could just swap it in without too much trouble. I have installed it and the bios recognizes it and CPU Z sees it as a GTX 675m, even the nvidea website auto detect sees it but says that the driver is manufacturer specific. Am I out of luck or is there something i can do? None of the drivers on nvideas website seem to work and i tried the one driver off of the MSI website for the GT60 vga driver.I really appreciate the help.

mobile.jeremyk Posted January 3, 2018 Author Share Posted January 3, 2018 Ahhhh.... i see, no i did not modify the inf file. I do remember reading something about that and im sure it was on this forum. I'll do some searching and see waht i come up with. Thanks for the reply. Unless someone that has done it before wants to chime in lol. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
