mw86 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Great news for P150HM/HM65 (29x0XM) owners. News: Moral Hazard (me) just flashed the p170hm bios onto his p150hm, success! Great thats pretty sweet so if I understand correct since im not familiar with system... P150hm system had no xm support or options and this p170hm bios enables that? Thats very cool woukd you be willing to make a small write up here about how you did and the steps and risks involved perhaps a pic of before and after bios menus. Many p150hm owners here would im sure appreciate the time and effort you have put in. Nice job Clyde. Btw welcome Clyde to Tech Inferno.

Thank you, As you write, P150HM/EM natively did not have support for the Intel XTU. Only P170HM/EM have. Since two years I wrongly thought that in P150HM due to lack of support by the HM65 chipset. Thanks to Moral Hazard, it turns out that the chipset does not matter. As soon as I find some free time, I will write something about both mods (P157HM and P157EM).

oile Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Wow! Great news! There would be any advanteges with a 2720QM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 If I'm not mistaken, you can edit in XTU the Turbo Boost Power Max, but without much impact on CPU performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moral hazard Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Seems like this would work better if we could flash the full ME firmware as well.http://forum.techinferno.com/general-notebook-discussions/2091-lets-enable-overclocking-all-6-7-series-laptops.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 R194 is absent on the motherboard (empty space). Just like PLL resistor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moral hazard Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Ahh ok, that isn't great.Can you please show me on the motherboard where you found those two places where the resistors are?I remember I spent hours looking for the PLL resistor and couldn't even find the place for it.

Clyde Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 PLL resistor is not evident, but there is no other possibility ME resistor it is. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moral hazard Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Thank you very much!But I don't understand why they are missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonesyndal Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Sounds like quite a risk to crossflash... and they're missing because they're different builds most likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forevercwj Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I always flashed the p170em bios onto MY p150em, success too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted December 26, 2012 Author Share Posted December 26, 2012 It could not be otherwise. In EM model these are almost the same motherboards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
