GT70 2PC Dominator 3 x quick launch buttons fast access touch panel not working

Hi, I bought this laptopin USA 3 weeks ago.
Btw, excelent laptop.
If I do F3 and fresh instal, it work all buttons at begining.... After some time, install all my app, like corel, office, adobe, ....and suddenly stop working the button.
Only 3 buttons doesnt work.
1st, media layer
5th - display ON/OFF - this is the most important to me
last one - G button, but I can run it from the taskbar icon.
I HAVE 128GB SSD AND 1TB SATA
My Bios info:
bios version E1763IMS.50W
build 05/02/2014
ec version 1763ems1 ver 7.13
ec bulid 03/07/2014
is really strange, maybe the win 8.1 or other thing that was installed.
any suggestions

Hi, that is the big problem here.
I have the lastest bios/ec and I already try it to reset and keep battery off for 5 minutes (remove the battery from laptop I mean)
But the buttons doesnt works,
I can turn on/off the items on the SCM icon running from the taskbar, except of corse the FAN button that doesnt exist.
But the touch pad buttons doesnt work or light up when I click on them.
bios E1763IMS.518
ec 1763EMS1.517
scm 13.014.06109
what I dont understand is the date showing on the bios/ec info, that I believe should be update to 2015...
I upload picture on my dropbox

[Solved] GT70 fast access touch panel not working

Good Morning/afternoon/evening
I did terrible mistake by reinitializing my SSD drive which caused me to lose the OEM partitions, my Laptop used to take 3 secs to boot but now it takes up to 6 secs.
back to my main issue,
1- the upper touch panel is not working and I cannot use turbo button.
2- after reinstalling windows 8.1 I got unknown device with HW ID "ACPI\VEN_ENE&DEV_0110"
I tried to install all drivers and utils but without luck.
best regards

I don't think you need to update EC, just install the SCM and it will works.
did not solve the issue
I tool it to service center already

Does all the quick launch buttons can't work properly? or just one? Does the button light on when you press it?
and which Turbo button do you mean? the G button? or the cooler boost button?
yes all of them when you press any button does not light up, I meant the cooler boost button

Home button on ipod touch 2g not working

I replaced the digitizer on it and now the home button is unresponsive. All of the connections appear to be good

Did you try the alcohol?
iFIxit says:
Note the small gold "square" above the dock connector. It's actually a conducting spring that rests against the home button. The button acts as a switch, connecting the spring to ground (the dock connector) when it's pressed.
Does that look right on yours?

Re-assign quick launch buttons [GT70 2PE Dominator Pro]

Is there any way to re-assign the quick launch buttons on my touch panel? I unstalled the pre-installed software that launched when I originally pressed the button and now it defaults to Windows Media Player. Could I change it to VLC Player at all?

I think it is possible, but in my opinion it should be universal: so should control the software that is running. If not, then look through the software that it came with to see if you can change default player or something like this. Also would be worth trying to change VLC settings to see if you can get anything from there.

Quick launch buttons and touch functions not working post win7 upgrade

I have several problems that I think are related.
1) When I rotate the screen and then bring it close (as in flat) to the keyboard, the screen goes blank. There is no key combination I can find that restores the screen. Putting it back in notebook orientation doesn't do anything either. Only thing to do is a hard reboot.
2) the quick launch buttons on the screen edge are not functioning as follows:
a) the hp mediasmart button (the one with the wave) doesn't work
b) the screen rotation button produces the same problem as 1) above
c) the third button which looks like either gears or a sun (I don't know what it should do) brings up the windows mobility center, where I have found problem number:
3) On tablet PC settings, the display tab, there is one display: 1. mobile PC display
on the same tab, there is a setup button. The next screen says:
pen input
touch input
Regardless which one I select, on the following screen (where it says Press this screen with ....) when I press with either my finger or the pen, nothing happens. Which seems like either:
it thinks another screen is active or
the touch components are completely non functional.
4) Not surprising, the touch functions are completely non-functional
I have installed all of the drivers for this TX2-1025dx for Win7(64bit) per the HP support/drivers page.
Not all of them resulted in a clean install.
Here are other drivers that I had problems with (meaning that I got an error message, it failed, it had to be done more than once, something else broke, etc.)
AMD AHCI - started catalyst installer then failed
Authentic fingerprint driver - "dpinst64 not marked for installation"
Ntrig Duosense - had to do this one multiple times to get the fingerprint reader to work
HP Mediasmart MVP - hung in CMD
I have checked that all of the startup services are actually enabled in msconfig including quick launch buttons, hpwuschd, and media smart. Nothing is disabled in services.
I have reinstalled the quick launch buttons driver for this product from December 2009. (There is an earlier version from November.)
I installed the bios upgrade (before win7, actually) it is currently F.25
I have also eliminated EMF possibilities.
I have searched the forums, and while I have found some interesting clues, I don't see anything like this - at least with a solution.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as this thing is quite useless to me as it currently functions. It is not a tablet anymore.
TIA

[knock knock] Helloooooo??!!??
Installed 6.50.9.1, which is in between the last two quick launch button (QLB) drivers (that did not work). Also fixed the lightscribe and mediasmart DVD installs. Same problems, no touch or pen, and a new bug I discovered with qlb
First, if you search for tablet in the start menu, there is a selection to set the tablet buttons to perform certain tasks. When you run that, it says that teblet buttons are not installed on this pc. Doesn't matter if QLB is installed or not - same error. Hmmmmm. Check with your pc manufacturer..... I think I am doing that. I am starting to feel like I am working for HP.
Next finding: Using mobility center, I found that if you orient the screen to landscape for the slate config, and then rotate the screen, it does not go blank. However, if you rotate the screen back to notebook, it goes blank. And of course it keeps that upsidedown config when you reboot, too. So, the way to recover from that (because you really need a keyboard if you don't have a working pen and touch takes 30 sec to respond) is to keep trying to get touch to orient the screen back to landscape for notebook. Then rotate the screen to landscape for notebook. And uninstall the QLB driver that doesn't work and reboot. But after that, touch and pen did not function.
Since touch and pen had previously been restored when I uninstalled QLB, I reinstalled MVP and smartmenu coz they were the actions that I took the last time before touch and pen returned. Didn't work this time, tho.
I decided to do a system restore back at the point that I had used HP Advisor, since that was the last time I made note that pen and touch were working. Restore failed because a sfi.dat file was not found (and search didn't find it anywhere either). I tried 5 different restore points, before and after that one, and they all failed. But the first time around, I had touch on the logon screen, just not after windows started. The next time, I had touch but not pen. The next time, I had touch and pen, but only for a period of time (I think HP Advisor may have been the intervening event) before they stopped working.
Oh, and HP advisor does not appear to be actually installing the things on the action list. That could be an issue with Comodo, but it really looks more like an issue with that "mother may I" message from Windows asking for permission to run the program. Often as not, windows reports that the program is not responding. Closing the program with that dialog box actually gives it the kick in the knickers it needs to complete.
A not so great workaround is to use the mobility center to orient the screen when you want to put the thing in slate mode. You can pin it to the task bar (with a little fiddling). Touch is extremely slow to respond in slate mode. For example, it took about 3 minutes to get the screen oriented back around to notebook config, which is 4 "clicks" if things are working right. Pen works sort of OK (although I haven't tried any writing) . Gestures for scrolling do not work.
I am done with the troubleshooting until someone comes up with other targeted ideas.I have been keeping detailed chrono notes.
Again, I hope the information here leads to a solution. This unit is not a functional tablet and I don't want to stay with Vista, neither should I have to since this is supposed to be compatible.

Tx2 - Customize Quick Launch buttons

I have installed Win7 Ultimate on my tx2-1370us (full / reformat) and re-installed most of the software, but... while the QLB seems to be functioning the Control Panel app doesn't appear to have been installed and I can't find a way to change the assignment of the buttons...
any suggestions?

I assuming by QLB you mean the 3 buttons on the montior (mine are windows moble center, hp media, and screen rotate) If you are id kill for these drivers I installed win7 from scratch as my upgrade has yet to arrive and everything worked great expect those 3 buttons. Without rotate tho my tablet is useless so I had to reinstall vista from a recovery disc (which was hell had to use my win7 disc to keep formating my drive but it finally worked) I was going to try and load the wim images with imagex and see if I couldnt find the driver but I dont even know the name of the program I'm looking for.
Anyways this is the one thing keeping me from upgrading to win7 id really like a fix for this becuase If id known I was going to be stuck on vista id probably never have bought it :/
also I can't find a quick launch button applet in control panel.
Anyone be kind enough to tell me the path? Thnx in advance

Quick Launch buttons not fully fuctional

I have a Pavillion laptop 6930 and I just upgraded to WIndows 7 ultimate 64. the quick launch buttons are not working properly. I installed some drivers I thought would make them work fully but was unsuccessful. The problems are that when I click the Mute quick launch button is that it does not turn orange any more. In vista the button would turn orange but not in 7. Even though it still mutes my computer I would like it to turn orange like it use to. The on screen Displays of the volume slider also does not show up. The quick launch button lowers and raises the volume but doesn't show on screen display of it. Back in Vista it had a green bar that would show up in the bottom right and move according to your finger on the quick launch button. Any solutions?

Hi,
Try a Hard Reset as follows.
Shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for a full minute. Re-insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook.

MSI GT70 2PC Dominator Battleship – EpisodeⅠ

[Introduction]
[Roberts are the dream of every man] one of my close fellows said. Actually, I am not a 3C fans. But it is really excited that Titan Fall is online now. So I made a tough decision that I never did it before. I purchased the [MSI GT70 2PC Dominator] with last year bounds.
[Open box article]
Finally, the shipment is coming today. It is true that now is one of my happiest moment in life. I put down all my work and start to share my new toy for everyone.
Note:
It is sad that I only have a phone next to me. Please forgive me those non-quality and non-professional pictures in article.
That is cool that we can find a big case with MSI log and an extra backpack in package.
There is MSI log on the top of box. Furthermore, I must said the Dragon log is so fashion and beautiful. That is a nice backpack which we can carry it outside anytime.
There is an extra soft layer behind the backpack. It improves the comfortable and air permeability for user.
In my own opinion, I like this kind of design.
Let’s check what surprise us in box.
We could see the label of GT70 2PC spec on the side of box.
MSI really provide the multi-protection for their products. There are two more cases inside.
We can find MSI gaming mouse/ SteelSeries SIBERIA V2 gaming headphone in box. Besides, there is a small and special box which has MSI Log. We will check it later.
All right. I think we can throw away the empty box now.
Wait a minute!!! The box is still so heavy. It must be something else that we didn’t take out.
Oh well, I see. There is a warranty service book and driver CD in the right side.
Also, battery and adapter are behind the cover.
Let’s take a family picture.
We have quick guide/MSI rromotional materials/manual for F3 recovery/driver CD for Win8.1/Warranty service book/ Windows 8.1 guide
Oh my god. There is a signet in that special box. Dragoon postmark is so elegant.
SteelSeries SIBERIA V2 Full-Size headset.
Furthermore, it supports 4 different languages. You can find the spec on its box.
Wow. MSI log is on the headphone. Totally, It is customized for MSI brand!!!
Another dragon army log on headphone.
MSI didn’t forget the inside of headphone. A beautiful shield is on it.
SteelSeries also promote this headphone on its website. It is so popular.
http://steelseries.com/products/audio/steelseries-siberia-v2
Now, let’s show SteelSeries KINZU V2 mouse.
Mouse supports 4 different languages, too. We also can find the spec on box.
However, there is no driver CD in box…LOL. How do I use it? We only can find the cute mouse and manual.
Sorry, my bad. We can download the driver and firmware from SteelSeries official website.
http://steelseries.com/products/mice/steelseries-kinzu-v2
Of course, there is a powerful dragon on mouse pad.
Take a mouse family picture.
180W adapter is just like a big strong brick. It is designed by most famous industry DELTA. You can find all kinds of safety signatures on it. It is powerful and undefeatable on playing game. But please understand that I didn’t suggest dear readers to use it as a weapon to throw/hurt people!!!
The battery is 7800mAh. And you can see all kinds of safety signatures on it.
Finally, our rock star is coming.
The laptop is surrounding by a lot of soft foams.
Huge dragon shield log on it.
Take off the black jacket. Then, we can see a nonwoven fabric inside the plastic bag.
Game start!!
This universe battle cruiser will help me dominate all my enemies in game .
We can find the security lack/power jack/ RJ45 port/D-SUB/m-DP/HDMI in back. The sales man said it can also support three external displays at same time. I must try the solution by myself when I get my new screens.
On the left side, there are USB3.0 port/Card Reader/HiFi headphone port (According to the spec, it will increase 30% audio performance). I can’t wait to listen my favorite music with it.
I didn’t forget my lovely BD. It also has BD reader/writer and 2 USB2.0 on the right side.
I can’t stop myself to take another wonderful photo with the MSI logo and upper case.
I have a feeling that my dominator is ready fight.
There is a [SteelSeries] LOGO on the left side. What a surprise it is. YA! We have SteelSeries keyboard on GT70. Absolutely, this is a gamer dream. Best Keyboard vendor SteelSeries and Top Gaming NB brand MSI are working together! It is totally worth for me.
DYNAUDIO, the leader of audio industry. As you know, BUGATTI’s sport cars use the DYNAUDIO. And MSI is the first notebook in world with this sound of Danish pride.
HA!HA!
I’m listening the best sound as rich people sitting in their sport cars. It feels great.
http://www.dynaudio.com/int/multimedia_sound/index.php
There are many thoughtful buttons on middle cover. (Power/Airplane mode/display on&off/Gaming button/Caps Luck/Num lock).
More convenience buttons, media/turbo fan/backlight LED.
We also have Bluetooth/WLAN/battery/sleep/disk indicators in front of laptop.
Here is GT70 spec and signatures form Sound Blaster CINEMA / nVIDIA /Intel.
An independent On/Off switch for touch pad.
Built-in Camera and Mic on the display.
You can see the thermal design and the battery when we check the back side.
The silver part is our bass. Just like the cannon on our battleship.
What is under the battery?
The left side is the safety signatures for GT70 and its WLAN.
The right side is Win8 LOGO and serial number.
Now we know my baby is born on February.
[Power on]
Gee!the Log is shining when the system is. power on .
The keyboard is just like the most beautiful rainbow that I’ve never seen. It is stunning. Honestly, my cheerful tear is dropping.
Anyway, Titanfall, I’m coming.
What? Something pops up when I attach the network.
What is [Killer Network Manager]?
Wow. Now I know that Killer high-performance networking products combine intelligence, control and superior networking speed for HD video, high quality audio, and online games. That’s great. I hate the evil [LAG] in game.
https://www.qca.qualcomm.com/products/killer-technology/
After the quick test, it is time to install my game.
I find a secret app in the tray of task bar during the game installation.
YA! That is SSE (Steelseries Engine). I can set my own hotkey, backlight LED and combo key with this good friend.
SSE is a smart app. It recognized my GT70 and my mouse immediately when I launch the app.
Sorry again. I was wrong because I don’t need a mouse driver. The SSE can control all of the actions. It is so sweet.
It is the time to say goodbye. Titanfall is calling. See you on battlefield!!!

Issues with a GT70-2PC Dominator

Morning everyone.
I am an italian customer who has recently bought an MSI GT70-2PC Dominator. I am kinda new to the mobile gaming thing, so please apologize me for whatever you judge unappropriate.
As I stated in the topic subject above, I'm having some performance issues on this laptop while I'm gaming.. I'm talking about lag and throttling. The game I've been testing is Ghost recon Phantoms (online FPS), but it's not very high-resource demanding, compared to last gen titles.. so I shouldn't have problems running it!
I have updated all the common drivers expect for a couple of them i'm not really sure about updating.. basically when I went to the msi download page for my laptop, there is one tab which displays 'firmware' - and contains not only firmwares, but also a vga bios.
I have not updated:
BIOS
VBIOS
Firmware
My questions are:
N.A) Is updating these drivers gonna improve my overall laptop performance?
1) Which bios should i update? 50y or 70y? I don't use raid, i'm asking just to be sure
2) How can i update the VBIOS? I couldn't find a tutorial for it, can you explain it to me?
3) How can i update the firmware? And which one of the twos (1513 and 2513) should i install? Again, can't find a tutorial for this.
I have Win 8.1 as OS.
Hope to solve my issues as soon as possible so I can start enjoying my new laptop! Thanks in advance guys.

I'll start with my normal speech....
How do you know it was throttling? You don't give any temperature information or anything else.....
What color was your power button when you were gaming? If it was white....well, you were using the Intel iGPU and not the NVidia, which would explain why you were seeing lagging and what you thought was 'throttling'.
I saw this recently myself when I ran Brutal Legend for the first time....it was still using the Intel iGPU. As soon as I setup the NVidia driver to switch for the game, suddenly everything worked AWESOMELY, and it was great.
Give a bit more information (specifically temperature, and color of the power button. Use MSI Afterburner if you need to) and we'll see what the next steps should be.

MSI GT70 2PC Dominator Wifi Dropping

Hi there, new user here, first of all I have already read the existing post regarding wifi drops and fixes. To clarify, below are the steps that I have taken as per suggestions that i found on the net:
1. Uninstalled the Killer Gaming Network manager program and only using the wifi/lan drivers.
2. Re installed updated killer gaming network manager and drivers from both MSI and Killer websites.
3. Change the maximize the power saving mode in the battery section for wireless adapter.
4. Unable the power management settings in the network wireless via network and sharing centre.
5. Use several different drivers via the update drivers window in network adapter (via device manager)
- ive used the standard killer n1202 drivers.
- ive used the qualcomm atheros wireless network adapter (both microsoft and qualcomm)
- currently using the qualcomm atheros ar9462 802.11a/b/g/n wifi adapter
These are the steps that i've taken, one of the many that i can remember doing at the moment. Still to this day my wifi issue persist.
I refuse to believe that this is a hardware issue because the current GT70 that i am using is a brand new laptop that MSI has given me after I RMAed my earlier GT70. So you can say this is the 2nd laptop they've provided to me after making a hell lot of noise to them because my first GT70 had an unknown issue 1 week after light usage.
I've ran out of ideas on what to do, i've been sucking this up for the past 3-4 months as i cant find a fix. I've done everything i can except updating the bios, which i was advised not to since I do not know how to flash or update my bios (whichever term you call it).
My wifi drops so often and I keep having to flush my dns (using ipconfig /flushdns) every 30 mins or so just to able to use the net, much less play any games.
So i was wondering if there was any steps that I missed? Im really in desperate need for help as i no longer know what to do.
I appreciate any help that you guys can provide. Thank you very much!

Just a quick update on my wifi after installing two different 'realtek drivers' from the MSI website.
It's still too early to tell, I will update further once i start gaming.
Just incase you guys wanna install the drivers, proceed to this link:
http://www.msi.com/support/nb/GT70-2PC-Dominator.html#down-driver&Win8.1 64
Download this two files:
Realtek Audio Drivers (222.21MB)
Realtek Cardreader RTS5227-GR & RTS5249-GR (10.3MB)
PS: I downloaded the audio drivers just cause it had the name realtek in there lul!
Keep me posted!
UPDATE
After 2 hours of gaming and surfing the web, i didn't had to constantly flush my dns. Although my wifi bar alternates between 4 and 5 bars, im guessing this is normal (as the wireless modem isn't in my room but the room opposite mine).
So far so good, is it a coincidence? I am not too sure, give me a few more days of test run and it'll be more conclusive. I say you guys should update your drivers, no harm in trying right?

What's your EC version?
Did you download it from here? http://www.msi.com/support/nb/GT70-2PC-Dominator.html#down-firmware
There're some ways to turn on/off the keyboard LED:
- Fn and '+' or '-' keys (numpad).
- Controlled by the button in the touch panel.
- Controlled by the SSE.
You can check the solutions mentioned above.

Hi lustyln,
I'm having a little trouble understanding all of what you are trying to explain. From what I can tell, it sounds like your PC has a lot of software problems and you want to know what is supposed to be there and what isn't.
For reference, here are your product specifications:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&dlc=en&docname=c01893242&lc=en&product=4043282
To get your PC software back to how it was when it was first purchased, run a system recovery:

Sound quick launch button doesn't work when i installed windows 8 in my hp pavilion dv3z notebook

1. Product Name and Number
hp pavilion dv3z notebook pc
2. Operating System installed (if applicable)
windows 8
3. Any changes made to your system before the issue occurred
installed windows 8
when i installed windows 8 in my hp pavilion dv3z notebook pc, the quick launch button of volume is always red and the sound is mute....the driver for quick launch buttons and driver for sound is also up to date....can you please help me?
This question was solved.
View Solution.

When installing the audio driver, was it installed by following the prompts or in compatibility mode as outlined here?
Based on the Software and Drivers page for this unit, the unit was not tested and certified for Windows 8. This means that some functionality may not be the same since the unit was not designed for Windows 8. See this site for information and to find out if it has been tested for Windows 8.
If the sound driver has not been installed in compatibility mode, then I recommend using the Windows 7 64bit driver found here and using the linked steps above to install it in compatibility mode.
Let me know what happens.

HP Quick Launch buttons incompatibility Windows 8.1 / Unable to Launch IE 11 and my yahoo home page

I have an HP Envy dv6 notebook PC Product # C2L31UA #ABA. I upgraded to Windows 8.1 several weeks ago and everything seemed to be working fine. About 3 weeks ago I started having problems with "internet Explorer stopped working" happening all the time. I also seem to have problems with installing updates from HP with failed updates then these problems start occuring. 4 days ago I was unable to launch IE 11 on my desktop or myyahoo home page. IE 11 is not working on my desktop or from the tile on Windows for Internet Explorer. I am able to use google and have been trying to search for solutions. I did find out from a scan that HP Quick Launch buttons are incompatible with Windows 8.1. I thouhgt this might be the problems. I have tried to remove it unsuccessfully. I have spent 4 days trying to fix my computer with no results. I thought I had uninstalled HP quick launch buttons late last night and I did briefly get my desktop to launch last night at 1 AM. However this morning It is not working again and the HP button is still on my computer. Not sure if this is what is causing all of these problems ? I also tried doing a system restore and it failed also. Can someone tell me what I should do? Thanks so much! I am not very computer savy so I am getting very frustrated.

Hello @luvpatch,
I understand that you are not able to use the HP Quick Launch buttons after upgrading to Windows 8.1, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
The first step I recommend is to completely remove HP Quick Launch from your system by using this Microsoft Fixit tool: Fix problems that programs cannot be installed or uninstalled. Once the program is removed, please restart your computer.
To further diagnose Internet Explorer on your system, I recommend following Resolving issues in Internet Explorer (Windows 8), as well as Troubleshooting Wireless Network and Internet (Windows 8). This should help to re-establish a consistent connection between your notebook and wireless network.
If the issue continues, I recommend performing a backup and refresh back to when Windows 8 was still installed on your system. To do this, I recommend following this resource on Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), as well as Refresh Your PC to Resolve Problems (Windows 8).
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!
