2GB GTX 680M for MSI GT70?

Hi.

I made the mistake of (maybe) buying the wrong video card for my GT 70.

I bought a GTX 680M with 2GB instead of the one with 4GB.

In device manager it says: "This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)"

Is it possible to get it working with this unit? Or am i out of luck? :(

Regards.

Marc

It sounds like you need to do a .inf mod since your laptop was not released with the 680m. You would need to do this with the MSI 4GB version too.

Thanks a lot!

I'm almost certain this could solve the issue.

Could you perhaps help me figure what hardware ID I'm supposed to look for in the driver .inf, in order to change it?

The GTX670M that was in previously, does not function anymore, so it's possible to assemble it in the unit anymore.

Thanks in advance

I tried. However it says there's no compatible device.

Any ideas?

And of course you can flash vbios for MSI GTX 680M with 2GB.
