wolf3d Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 The 'README' file says "follow on screen instructions....and NVFLASH will instruct the user on screen to disable (not uninstall) the GPU driver in device manager before proceeding with the flash.Also no need to reboot after disabling it. Reboot only after a successful flash when you get the brief reboot request message at the end of the flash. Then only re-enable the driver after that reboot. Also my next update will no longer require the driver to be disabled... Sorry for the silly question, bu disabling the graphics card in the P770ZM (not having the integrated one enabled) the screen will work anyway? Thanks!

Disable it and flash. I've done it with both version 1 and 1.1 of his vbios mod on this exact machine. It will not go blind by disabling the driver in device manager...

Khenglish Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Sorry for the silly question, bu disabling the graphics card in the P770ZM (not having the integrated one enabled) the screen will work anyway?Thanks!Disabling the gpu in the device manager only disables the Nvidia driver, not the gpu. The gpu will still function to drive the display. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegh0sts Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 OK, I have tried Prema's vbios mod for the 980M and when i boot using the nvidia inspector shortcut the 'prioritize temperature' checkbox resets and becomes unchecked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My vBIOS has a 92c hard limit if you check that box or not.It is only required if you want to use a custom temperature in which case it will honor any temperature below until a minimum of 50c (Inspector has a bug reporting 50 as 49c).

skill7899 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 It didn't flash the GPU, because it was unable to detect it. Probably the system was in iGPU mode.Disable the NVIDIA driver then flash the card again. With the unit switched off, remove AC Adapter for 30s after the flash. If you have done that, then make a CMOS rest. thanks for your reply, i try to do it,but failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 I set it to 90Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk Then it'll throttle @ 90c no matter if the "prioritize temperature" is ticked or not as my vBIOS has TDP limiter disabled it'll always adhere to thermal limits. Just set it to 60c or 70c, leave the box anticked and watch it throttle at exactly that threshold. thanks for your reply, i try to do it,but failed. What exactly is the problem? Not booting at all? Freezing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barthchris Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Prema, Thanks for your work on these bios mods! I just flashed my year and a half old P150 SM-A (awesome computer by the way), it was easier than I thought, thanks for making it idiot proof. You have some skills and dedication. Did you learn how to do these mods from a job or did you just pick it up on your own? People like you are the people who make the world work nowadays.

neonindian Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 So I've got a W370ST, but it's from Pro Star. Would the Clevo BIOS work for this particular reseller model?

Will be interesting to see how far you can go with a 330W at stock voltage (assuming the +170Mhz you have now is not the max stable - from your post sounds like you're limiting the core overclock due to the small power brick).

Dstrand15 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Hi. Just stumbled upon this Prema Mod a few days ago when i wanted to update drivers/BIOS on my re-branded Clevo w370et from 2012.Very curious, I want to try it out, but i have some questions first. Looking/searching through this thread helps, but far from everything is clear to me yet..1. The OV edition, is the only difference from the normal version, that the GFX card gets overvolted?2. What is the "Intel Management Engine Firmware & Driver"? Where do i check my current version and should i update this?3. Do i need to update the stock BIOS/EC to latest version, before installing the Prema Mod?4. I got my current bios settings/version numbers like this:American megatrends version 2.15.1226BIOS version 1.02.18EC version 1.02.09Anti-Theft enabledSATA mode: AHCIOS Select: othersUEFI boot: Disabled- Is this okay prior to flashing the Prema MOD? I'm running Win8.1 pro 64bit.5. Are there any settings i windows i need to adjust prior to flashing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rikoshet Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Hi Prema! Months ago I flashed my 970m with this bios:http://forum.techinferno.com/general-notebook-discussions/8560-nvidia-maxwell-vbios-mods-900m-series-overclocking-versions.htmlNow, when I trying to flash OC1.1 version, with your *.bat file or directly in CMD, the flasher gives me "ERROR board ID mismatch". I've tryed all nvflash versions from techpowerup.com that support my card, al versions gives the same error... Options like " -4 -5 -f -u -p" gives help info about using nvlash! And using "o" option gives another ERROR: Firmware image filename must have a valid extension, and mine is "rom", downloaded from third post!Any idea on how to proceed?Thank you!
