svl7 Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I just cleaned up this thread a bit. Please stay on topic. If you want to discuss something unrelated to this flickering issue then feel free to open a new thread or post in an existing one that fits the topic.Off topic discussion just makes it hard to find the actual information.Also editing my mod will only cause issues if you do it wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViTosS Posted October 22, 2013 Share Posted October 22, 2013 Interesting that some people here only have the flickering problem, while mine is the black screen problem, maybe that vbios fix for both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BudMarLeY Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 did you try to download the new version of the drivers, 331.xx that was released on oct 21.to have a easy fix for this, dont let the computer sleep or hibernate. if your not using your computer then just turn it off.

I think the reason why this V-BIOS solved the problem is the SAGER V-BIOS version is so bad it doesn't have the correct voltage/wattage to feed the 2 GPU cards (in 120Hz) for good performance, thats why its always flickering & making all games f###d up because of the bad V-BIOS version that doesn't supply both GPUs with enough power to work properly.Thanks again to Svl7, Prema & Bud Marley for creating this post to resolve this huge problem which affects all the SAGER NP-9380S Notebooks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xigital Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 Right now I have installed nvidia drivers 331.58. I do a full uninstall of the drivers and try older ones but no difference. I flash the original v bios 80.04.BD.00.05 rom. I connect another monitor on the HDMI port and stereoscopic appears again in the nvidia control panel but the setting no detect the IR on my laptop. Disconnect the HDMI and stereoscopic disappears. I have a single GTX780m GPU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And using the 331.58 driver as well? Can you post a screen of GPU-Z of your BIOS version? Because I did flash, and at the end it said sucessfull and everything, just to make sure I really flashed the bios.Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 26, 2013 Share Posted October 26, 2013 @ViTosS Make sure to check the VBIOS version on each GPU with GPU-Z to verify that both cards where flashed.@xigital Re-install the 3D VISION (Emitter driver)...also what are your systems main BIOS & EC versions (shown in F2 boot/BIOS menu) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, but I did everything in the tutorial from Nvidia BIOS Flash thread, it asked if I wanted to flash and I typed yes and asked something again and I typed yes, it did a beep sound and said at the end the bios was flashed sucessful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssam_sm Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hey Vitoss, I run Windows 8 64 bit, yes Im using the latest 331.58 driver & my V-Bios is the Svl7. Here is a Shot from my GPU-Z, its exactly the same for both cards. Just to be clear I tried all the Nvidia drivers even the latest version before flashing the Svl7 V-BIOS and nothing worked, only the V-BIOS solved the problem. I did try Battlefield 3 also and its working fine. Note: All the games tested with Alt+Tab and back & forth at least 20 times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenandaoer Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 The vbios is still working great, thought i did encounter a random driver crash(not sure if it's caused by the vbios; my driver version is 331.40). I played bf3 with 3d -vision enabled for 2 hours and everything worked perfectly, no flickers or blackscreens. I'll hold off on the driver update for now just in case it messes with the custom vbios. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll hold off on the driver update for now just in case it messes with the custom vbios.could be caused from overheating. usually itll BSoD or crash to protect the hardware. check your temps next time and keep me informed.BF3 and BF4 have been known to be heat whores on your cards.Perma I do the 3D Vision driver installation already and my system bios version is 1.00.03LS1 and the EC Firmware Rev. 1.00.05 The MB series: P370SMFYI: this thread is for the issues with the 780m in SLI w/ 120hz and not the motherboard or the 3D emitter, so please stay on topic, if you have a BIOS question for your motherboard please go to this thread.http://forum.techinferno.com/clevo-sager/3119-premas-mod-bios-latest-stock-bios.htmlyou may contact Prema though PM's if need be for the 3D emitter.thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evilevil Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 For the past few days I have been reading the steps for flashing the vBios of svl7 very carefully and for a couple of times in order to not mess things up, after trying many solutions and the latest one was installing the new Nvidia driver 331.58 and which was claimed that it will solve the problem the easy way and without flashing any vBios, it made the problem even worse for me. So at last I figured out that my last resort was flashing the svl7 vBios and give it a shot as I was very desperate. Finally I did flash the Svl7 vBios and guess what I didn't believe it at first, after running my first game which is BF3 and which used to have the most flickering problem (((The flickering issue actually disappeared))) I have even tried to alt+tab more than once and everything runs smoothly and without any flickering or scan lines issues. Afterwards I have tried a couple of other games which also used to have aggressive flickering issues like Tomb Raider, Black OPS 1 & 2, Hitman absolution, Blacklist, Battlefield 4 beta, Starcraft 2, SniperGhostWarrior2, Metro Last Light, Metro 2033, Assassin`s Creed III, Max Payne 3, Batman Arkham City and in all of these games the problems seems to have completely disappeared even after a couple of hours testing and a lot of alt+ tab.I would like to thank svl7 for his awesome work on this vBios that without it the problem would still exist in most of the sager notebooks, as I think that sager themselves are struggling to solve this issue till now.Special thanks also for budmarley and prema for posting this thread and helping others for solving this annoying problem which is available for many sager users. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
