  • GE40 2OC Dragon Eyes - Screen Issues

    Hello,
    My notebook have screen issues, it goes black in some situations. Sometimes, when I turn on the notebook, the screen is already black and I cannot see anything, then I have to turn it off (pressing power button). It also goes black when I close notebook lid and reopen it (I have set up so that closing the lid does not do anything to the notebook). Also, minimizing or closing some fullscreen games like Skyrim or Resident Evil 6 makes the screen go black. When it goes black I turn notebook off. Please help :(.

    He only reconnected the cable. So, it is better to replace it with a new one, right?
    I can see the desktop when connected to HDMI, the notebook works normally, except the built in display.
    Ok, I will update BIOS and report here =D
    That issue of yours does not sem to be BIOS related problem at all so you would mostlikely have same problem after bios update, so best is to send it to repair where they will re-place the screen cable completely some times they get worn out and begins to glitch.

  • MSI GE40 2OC Dragon Eyes - GTX 760M screen too white

    So I bought this laptop today and I noticed that the screen was really white, so I tried calibrating the color and that didn't help, and then I tried using the intel graphics control panel that didn't work either.
    I was wondering if there was a way to solve this problem because watching movies on this laptop is painful.
    thanks

    I can't really take a photo, but I can try to explain it.
    The quality of the screen is washed out (white) It doesn't have that rich tone normal computers have. Usually contrasting the screen helps but for some reason no matter how much I play with it, it doesn't solve this problem.
    The thing is I read this review for this laptop online and they said "screen looks washed out unless you push it back a fair amount" which shows that there might be a way to fix it.
    I hope this description helps
    thanks in advance

  • Systematic keyboard settings reset on the laptop GE40 2OC 036

    Good day to all!
    I have bought laptop GE40 2OC (Dragon Eyes) in January 2014. I managed to get a configuration with Super RAID (128 +128 Stripe) and HDD WD750 GB. Notebook is very productive, as I wanted.
    The problem is: in Win8, which stood on the laptop as default OS, keyboard configuration (settings) namely the "delay before repeat" didn’t save. I used to work with a minimum of delay, and it in a while (indefinitely, different each time) returned to the standard default value. The most amazing thing in the keyboard settings (Control Panel -> Keyboard) slider has always remained in the position where I left it (far right).
    I first thought that Kaspersky, which was pre-installed, was the reason, then thought about keyboard driver, it can be a long list ...
    A few days ago I realized the reason - the keyboard settings are reset to default, if you press any combination of fn + F(x), or fn + cursor (change of volume/brightness). I.e.you wanted a brighter screen - pressed fn + UP, and settings returned (delay before repeating) back to the default value.
    I decided to see how different keyboards will behave in the BIOS. The result surprised me.
    1) The native keyboard - if you just hold the DOWN arrow, then in half a second cursor starts to "run". Speed is really slow, namely repeat rate (not delay).
    2 ) Logitech K230 - delay before repeat rate is the same as in the case 1, but the repeat rate is faster - about in one and a half times.
    3) The native keyboard after pressing any combination fn + func. key  - The speed of the delay before repeat is the same as in the case of 1 and 2, but the speed of the repeat ... just mad (!) . I.e. actually in two times faster keyboard sends repeats.
    So it is NOT SOFTWARE problem. It is something wrong in HARDWARE.
    Question - Does anyone faced with the same trouble? If so - how to treat it? I do not want to go to service center, because not sure that they will be able to fix something.
    P.S. to avoid unnecessary questions about my diagnostics:
    1) first I deleted the keyboard driver from the device manager – it did not help, settings were abandoned at some points (I did not yet know the reason) still "lost".
    2) Removing Antivirus (it had input filter module to protect password fields at websites) did not help .
    3) Then I thought about Logitech mouse and keyboard (Unifying) - but they all work fine! I.e. delay of wireless keyboard K230 is always the same, but the native notebook keyboard returned to default over time. By the way – is it a feature, that native notebook keyboard does not wake laptop from sleep ? WHY?
    4) In a moment of deep frustration I decided, and updated to Windows 8.1 (but I did not want to, thinking that it will help – and it did not).
    5) Yesterday I updated the BIOS from version E1492IMS.30H to version E1492IMS.30N - really hoping for success, but other than nonworking Wi-Fi I have not received any "advantages ". About Wi-Fi it is another story..
    6) Finally, I thought that new firmware can fix something, and in addition updated firmware from 5.06 to 5.07. That solved only the problem with Wi-Fi, by the way, not keyboard EC reset was done.
    7) the reason for the problem I found accidentally, because I had a suggestion that turning off the camera (fn + F6) was somehow connected with keyboard. It should be noted that the on/off of the webcam also does not save its settings (white balance, saturation, etc. return to default). But this I do not care much.
    Please help, because I believe that I am not the only one who have this trouble and certainly in other MSI laptop models such bugs can be too.

    Nope, that's fine.
    The MSI rep I forwarded this to said that he has forwarded on-ward as he did not have a GE40 for testing at the time.
    He did also agree and seem to think there is a problem with the EC that would cause this issue.
    I expect he may post here once a fix has been found.
    Thanks!
    I'll wait. I think it is clear that the problem goes away when I restart laptop, and also after changing and accepting settings in Control Panel -> Keyboard. But next fn + func. key will again cause default settings

  • Fresh install for Windows 8.1 Pro on GE40 2OC?

    Hi there,
    I had just purchased the GE40 2OC notebook.  At the same time, I had also purchased the Windows 8.1 Pro upgrade separately.  I would like to have a clean install on my system.
    My concern would be how to set up the 2 x 64GB SSD HDD under Super RAID, on top of the 750GB HDD.
    Will it be automatic under the Windows 8.1 install?  Or are there specific steps to do so?
    Thanks,
    Chester

    The raid array is already set up, you will just see it as a single destination drive and possibly need to load raid drivers during install.

  • GE40 2OC-250BE downgrade from W8 to W7

    Hello everybody
    2 months after proudly receiving my new laptop i am sick of it, IT ? This play version of W8 that never works, updates don't install (it blocks on downloading or installing but in fact never does the update, I tried to upgrade to 8.1, it doesn't work.
    Anyhow I have had enough patience, I want my favourite stable W7 setup, otherwise I will never be able to appreciate my great pc.
    Can somebody guide me to do a downgrade ? Is there a thread on this topic for the GE40 2OC ?
    Thanks in advance
    Jos

    I did it last week.
    How easy it is depends on what Windows 7 version you have.
    If you have a recent 64 bit Windows 7 installation medium I guess it may be easy because it has GPT and UEFI boot capabilities.
    Mine was an older 32 bit Windows 7 installation DVD, and it would not install because it does not boot when the bios is in UEFI mode,
    and because it does not support the newer GPT disk partitioning format.
    I used an Ubuntu linux live CD to erase the GPT partitioning scheme, and then changed the bios settings to legacy to be able to boot from the W7 DVD.

  • MSI GE40 2OC - Webcam problem

    Hello.
    I have recently bought a MSI GE40 2OC laptop and i must say its absolutely beautiful light and fast as lightning.I will be moving to UK now because im starting University and i wanted to make sure Skype was properly working.On that process it detected that i DIDNT have a webcam plugged into my system.Its not in the device manager tab either so i am guessing the webcam is internally disconnected.I am very frustrated and hoping that someone can give me a solution.
    Thanks in advance 

    I just got this model too, and love it.  Good point though, I haven't tried the webcam.  I currently don't have software like Skype that utalizes it, but I have a feeling it's also missing on my computer.  Normally the webcam is listed under my computer (on mine it's not), and also it shoudl be listed under device manager (also on mine it's not). 
    I also don't see the drivers listed on the drivers page: [not allowed to post external links] makes me wonder if the drivers are even available for it.

  • GE40 Dragon Eyes 20C. Webcome broken after fresh install windows 8.1

    I just bought this laptop 3 weeks ago. I freshly installed 8.1 from a CD and so far, the webcam doesn't work. It doesn't appear in Device Manager and Fn + F6 doesn't work. What should I do? Couldn't find drivers around the net. MSI page for this laptop doesn't provide the driver for the webcam. Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Did it work before you installed Windows 8.1?
    Do you have SCM installed? Is it working?

  • GE40 2OC with 1 SSD. Where to put second hd?

    Hello, My laptop comes with only one hard disk SSD of 128gigabyte. I would like to insert an additional hard disk.
    I am not sure where I can insert it, should I remove the dvd and buy an adaptor/caddy?
    What kind of hard disk should I buy?
    Is it possible to buy another ssd in addition to the original one instead of removing the dvd?
    Thanks in advance

    Try to just pull it from laptop. It should just come out. Other laptops have 1 screw which keeps it inside but here I see none. So either it has no screw and you need just to pull it gently or you have to unscrew whole bottom cover because one of screws holds it. My bet there is no screw at all.
