Hi everyone laugh.gif

I have a msi gt683r with a gtx 670m, someone can help me.

I have this problems:

- The USB of the right side, next to the audio jacks doesnt work.

- The FN-Buttons do not function properly in screen dimming.

- Problems with fan regulation (e.g. fan always running @100% with light of the fan off, when i press the fan button light goes on fan goes maybe to 80%), the system OS doesnt controll fan speed. (With the program that controll the fan only the last step works).

- Low brightness, i mean it seems it only gives me 50% of what i should had, and sometimes the light flickers. (Dont know if it is because of my 150w psu since i upgrade it to gtx 670m).

Gt687R ?

Bios version: EF16F2IMS.30Z 04/06/2012

ECVERSION:16F2EMS1 VER4.24 12/06/2011

So is this problems related to my EC Firmware i already flash EC Firmware again, and i also reset the bios dindt work to.

Does anyone knows how to solve this problems?

Thank you

all of these (apart form USB) seems to be gpu related - did you have these problem before you upgraded GPU?

did you install chipset driver and USB 3 driver ?

Hi thank you for your fast anwser, i cannot tell because i had a msi gt660r and the motherboard died, so i upgrade the motherboard to ms16-f2 and bought the gtx 670m.

Your the third person today that tells me that it might be something about the graphic card, so i download gpu-z and the VBios is from dell, also to install the gpu i had to modify the drivers.

The chipset and usb3 are installed.

Do you think is vbios related since the one i have is from dell?

Thank you

When I upgraded GT555M to GTX675M (DELL card as well) it happend to me too - DELL vBIOS and backlight control didnt work. It didnt work only in Windows. It worked in BIOS or during MSI splash screen. With MSI vBIOS backlight worked but VGA port did not.

I'd try to flash the vBIOS.

The flickering is strange though- this shouldnt happen - You said you replaced mobo, I'd check the LCD cable. Maybe its just a loose LCD cable.

I did replace my mobo ms16-f1 for a ms16-f2. (All the parts seem to be the same Housing Lcd buttons etc).

The problem is that there isnt a msi vbios for gtx 670m 1.5gb, only for gtx 670m 3.0gb, i will try to see if svet can make one for this card maybe modifying the vbios of the msi gtx 670m 3.0gb to mine.

In my case in bios and in Windows the light problem is the same, it inst the lcd cable since i can move the lcd up and down and nothing happens, to the light flickers when it starts consuming more power and the clocks go up.

I will try to contact svet to see what he thinks and what he need to make me a vbios.

Thank you

Hi the problem of brightness is solved it was a lcd problem wich i thought it wasnt, since the led bulb in the lcd seem to be fine.

Still the system doesnt controll my fans... grrrrrr
