MSI GE60 0ND - Fan Issue - Cooler Boost Button

Hello,
I have a problem with my MSI GE60 0ND. The fan / cooler boost button above the keyboard is always glowing and sometimes very light flickering. The fan spins at a normal and quiet level.
When I press the button the fan starts spinning up and stays at the high level. The ligt of the button keeps glowing, but the flickering stops completly. When I press it again the fan goes back to a normal level, but the light keeps glowing.
I recently updates the EC-Version, because I had an issue with my fan which was really annoying. Before the EC update my fan kept spinning up and down every 10-20 seconds.
The temperatures ware always at a normal level. I own my MSI GE60 about one year. The spinning fan issue started just one month ago, but was fixed trough the update.
Some detailed information about my notebook:
MSI GE60 0ND
Bios: E16GAIMS.10F (Release version)
EC-Version: 16GAEMS1 Ver4.05
I'm using Windows 7 x64 and tried also Windows 8.1 x64. Both have the same fan button issue.
Installing / Uninstalling MSI SCM utility didnt make any difference.
Regards
Thomas

fan is constantly spinning with the same, average speed. It goes faster when on stress but continue to spin when system is idle
Bios Version: E16GAIMS.10F
EC Version: 16GAEMS1 Ver4.05
Sorry to spoil that, but the fan was indeed always spinning before, too. But very quietly at a low rate! You could observe rotational speed in RWeverything and it did NEVER stop with that notebook (GE60) and the EC-version 14.04
If you want to go back, check out my post here. There are the old firmware files included as well. But read the readme.txt thoroughly first!

MSi GE60 0ND - Fan has started to randomly speed up slow down

MSi GE60 0ND-463UK
I7 3630QM
GTX660M
Windows 8 64 bit
As of yesterday, my laptop has started to weirdly (under no loading on GPU or CPU, CPU 20% max during HD video watching on Youtube/Twitch.tv) causing my fan to go from being quiet to shoot up in speed, this seems to stop when plugged in but when on battery power it's becoming more frequent. The only thing that is being done on the laptop when this happens is internet browser use.
I cleaned my laptop 2 days before yesterday so it can't be a heat issue or dust issue. I'm quite clueless right now. I'm not what else to tell you, as that's all I've done. No updates to windows, no software updates on anything for over a week now I believe. Cable issue maybe?
Hope I can get some info on this.

Yes, indeed the MSI download servers seems to be crapped out right now.
But i have a backup of wanted firmware at my PC,
im attach it here for you.
For flashing you can use >>Clear CMOS Guide<<
point to mode 1 then point to archive file.
wait the USB key to be prepared, then reboot your notebook.
go in BIOS setup, then set boot mode to legacy,
then save and exit, and press F11 at bios post/logo screen for BBC popup with storages,
when USB key appear choose it to boot from it and proceed with update
USB prepared properly according to the Software. Restarted my laptop
Legacy mode engaged, saved ad exited, pressed F11, found my USB Kingston, and this is the message I received when selected. Not quite sure what it meant but clearly something is wrong.

MSI GE60 0ND Fan running at 100% issue

Hi,
So for the past few months my laptop has been having the issue where it would have the fan speed increase to 100% then slow down and turn off. It would do this a lot. Anyway, tonight I was playing a game and next thing I heard the fan increase to 100% but this time it made a loud almost grinding noise. And that's all it does now. It has slowed my boot up incredibly. I unplugged the fan to test this theory and my boot up was less than 10 seconds. So now I have a fan making a loud noise and creating issues with my laptop. I have a GE60 0ND windows 8.1. The bios has never been flashed and it came installed with windows 8. Can anyone help me? I have tried an EC Reset.

tell what's your BIOS and EC versions

MSI GE60-2OE Fan Issue

Hello
So I've had mine MSI GE60 for little over a year now and recently the fan has been making 'rattling' and 'grinding' noises. I went onto the forums and search for similar topics and people said there are a few possibilities.
1) Fan is not balanced
2) Dust build-up
3) Fan bearing being used up
Many people said to contact MSI and ask for a replacement fan if the laptop is on warranty (Mine still is, Until Feb 2016)
However here is the problem. When I purchased the laptop I registered it straight away. Now when I go onto the MSI Register Product page it is not there. I am being asked for the serial number of the Laptop but I don't have the box. I have the proof of purchase and all the warranty documentation but dont know where to look for the Serial Number of the Laptop. It is not on the back Sticker. All it says is "GE60 2OE I77400MQ / 16GB / 1000GB / GTX765M FHD"
Is there any other way to get the serial number of the laptop? Device Manager? BIOS? (I'm running Win 8.1)

try removing the battery - my GE60 has a sticker, with the serial number on the battery slot which will reveal once you remove it. good luck on your RMA :D

There was an issue with the EC firmware that could cause this.
Go to your GE60's support page and download the latest EC firmware and use the MSI HQ USB Flasher to flash it.

MSI GE60 OND Fan Issue

Hi, I've just purchased this laptop second hand from a friend and everything is working fine except the fan, I've seen other users on here with the same problem but I couldn't find a solution that made sense to me!!! The fan powers on ok but then starts to go up to full power then back down to almost silent, I've managed somehow, following a step by step guide, to update the bios but I cannot seem to update the EC which sounds like it might fix the problem, every time I download the file from the msi support page it says that its not compatible with 64bit versions of Windows 8?? Has anyone else managed to overcome this problem and have a step by step guide on what they did? Thanks in advance for any help as this is now becoming very annoying.

Which version are you trying to update and how you do the update?
Try to update the EC under DOS mode and don't forget to do the EC reset afterwards.

MSI GE60 0ND Fan

If you replace the fan with any new fan that connects will you still be able to use the turbo fan button?

No Guarantee that it will work.

MSI GE60 0ND Fan rattling/grinding sound temporary fix

Don't do this if you still got warranty.
There are two way to fix this fan sound problem by either replace whole blower with new part or replace the fan bearing. I already order matching part from china. But it would take at least 2 week to ship to me. So it's time for temporary fix.
Remove the fan by remove three screw
The part number is PAAD06015SL
Next, pry open 4 metal clip
and push the fan blade out
Apply oil to fan bearing
The regular machine oil I used.
Reverse all step and test it out.
Enjoy the silence.

Or couple years if you put oil every 6 month. At least this is what is on practice.
However my fan did not go out that easily when you push it.

Fan Issue MSI GE60 0ND 455 XDE

I´ve bought a MSI GE60 0ND 455 XDE laptop and installed the newest offical drivers, firmware and Win7. I´ve also built in a SSD and RAM. There is only one problem, the fan keeps spinning up and down every 10 seconds even when nothing is running on the laptop. If i change with rweverything the EC value in Field 72 from 29 into 30 there is no issue anymore, but if i reboot i have to do it again. Is there a possibility to fix it permanent? Maybe with a firmware update or an unlocked BIOS?
Thank you!

[Solved] [GE70-2OC] Cooler Boost button issue

Hi everyone,
I acquired a GE70-2OC in 02/26/2014 which i'm very satisfied with except for a little thing,
the "Cooler Boost" button doesn't work anymore, i tried many solutions found in the internet (including from MSI HQ forum) and i still don't know where the problem is ?
what i already did :
EC Reset
Did a recovery with the burned DVD (DVDs were a recovery of W8 and i was on W8.1 then W8.1U1)
Get back to W8.1U1 and updated all the drivers and utilities (last versions available on the websites MSI France and Global)
Updated the BIOS (with two distinct versions 617 then 517 following the step-by-step on MSI's site)
Updated the Firmware (with a reset of the EC after it for about an hour)
Uninstalled -> restarted -> CCleaner -> restarted -> reinstalled SCM -> restarted
after all this still got nothing after every step, so now i really don't know what to do, if anybody has any idea how to fix this i'll give it a shot.
little information : I did a little test "burn" to see if the fan's speed changes automatically and it did, so this means the problem is only with the button (or SCM)
I'm thanking you in advance

thank you for the help hch, so far it's the only key that doesn't work, i just tried all the FN keys they all work, i tried the backlight key (since it isn't a backlit keyboard so i have an IE window to this forum) but the cooler button does nothing
Does the booler boost button lights on when you press it?
So if you have update the latest EC from MSI website, the version should be 510?

MSI GE60 0ND-422NE

hello everyone, just recently bought myself a MSI GE60 0ND-422NE.
ive been wondering how the turbo boost works in this laptop? when i press the button it asks me what program i want to be able to open with it, and found out that it mean my laptop doesin't support the turbo mode.
under specifications on this laptop from the store i bought it, it says my I5 processor has a max turboclock on 3.1ghz, but how does this work then?
also, since the laptop have both Intel HD 4000 & GTX 660M graphics, does it then automaticly change between those 2 like when i start up a demanding game?

No GE notebook features a turbo, only GT ones do.
Quote from: GE60 OND FAQ: http://www.msi.com/service/faq/672.html
The scenario you encountered is normal since this model doesn’t support overclock function. Note: When the TURBO LED turns blue, it indicates that the system is under heavy loading thus system automatically switches to Nvidia dedicated graphics usage. On the other hand, when the TURBO button is pressed and user-defined key shows up, the blue light will turn off.

Yes, that's how it works.

Stop error 0x000000D1 in MSI GE60 0nd/0nc

Hello,
i just I just bought a few days ago the laptop MSI GE60 0nd/0nc and until now got few blue screens..
all of the blue screens have the same .
the stop errors is 0x000000D1 ..
Picture of one of the blue screens:
files and data of my blue screens:
dropbox.com/s/qftex61g2hsqkv1/Minidump.rar
I do not know why this is happening.
But until now I have tried several things to solve the problem that information I can provide:
When I bought the computer, the computer came without an operating system (Windows). it was only freeDOS.
I installed Windows 7 (the X17-24281.iso copy from here - official-windows-7-sp1-iso-image-downloads-t12325.html with Valid serial i have). Then the blue screen happened to me at the first time. the First blue screen was happened to me while I was trying to change the my partitions in my Hard Disk Through the "Create and format a hard disk partitions" in Windows 7.
I can say definitively - it happened on a clean Windows - Before I installed any drivers from my disc that came with the computer.
But the first blue screen not saved and documented. It is not included in the download, and it's not in the images.
I re-installed windows and it is deleted.
The other times it happened to me was after i have installed the drivers.
and this was happen not when i played games..
Most times it happened when i used the softwere 3ds max 2013.
The strange thing is that it did not happen and not even once in heavy game when the computer work most hard.
I played for hours the game Far Cry 3 on ULTRA settings and no blue screens at all..
this point is very strange.
not all of my blue screens happened While 3ds max 2013 running but most of them.
i downloaded the software "bluescreenview" and Every time i got a blue screen, i looked in that Software.
Most of the blue screens was Show me that the broblem is with the ntoskrnl.exe.
but by Search on Google - this info was not good enough for me because According to Google - this exe do Lots of general things.
Yesterday i got a new blue screen with the same Error Message - DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
but this blue screen gave me more info About the problem -
According to "bluescreenview" i saw that there was Another file (with the ntoskrnl.exe) that Caused the problem.
that file is "netwsw00.sys" -
I did a Google search and it gave me much more information ..
The problem is with the intel wireless card.
After some searching, I came to a topic at Intel forum:
communities.intel.com/thread/33377?start=15&tstart=0
In this topic people have complained about this problem (Blue screen).
On the second page of the topic someone gave a link to an old driver for the intel wireless card.
he said that he Does not have that problem with this driver. the old driver version is 14.2.0.10.
so i installed this driver and after that i thought I solved the problem...
Because after that I did not get a blue screen for a long time ...
I turned on the 3ds max and for hours - laptop worked properly.
I did a lot in that time. I played far cry 3 and I used a lot on the computer.
but at the end - it happened again. While 3ds Max and Photoshop running.
This was a blue screen with the same message.
I do not know what to do.
Please help me!

Ok, first off, the link you provided does NOT pertain to you at all. Your problem is pertaining a stop error. The problem at that link is related to the e22w8x64.sys which is completely different.
Are you overclocking the computer at all?
Are you 100% certain that the hard drive is NOT failing?
You are right.
But I'm sure that it is the Wii-fi.
Because the file netwsw00.sys related to the intel wireless card.
and i found a topic about BSOD with this file on intel forums and i tried the solution but it does not solve my problem.
i also installed these drivers:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=164835.msg1215981#msg1215981
for the killer network divice in case that the problam is with the killer network.
what i am doing is to search BSOD problems with the intel wireless card and just try the solutions even if those problams is not the same as my.. i just think that maybe one solution might would solve my problem.
In fact, I think I found someone's topic here with the same problem:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=168821.0
The solution there is to disable the 802.11n.. but i have more ideas and I want to try it and I would rather try anything because it's the last option for me.
By the frequency of these blue screens, the impression I get is that it's a case of instability.
These blue screens happen after activities related to intel wireless card.
For example - it happened after I turned of the wii-fi and then turned on through the S-Bur.
The last time it happened to me was when I tried to get into online mode in some game.
But because I can not make more blue screens by repeating the steps I did, it leads me to think that the problem is instability.
I tried to think what causes instability and that's all that came to mind:
* Heat
* memory leak in the intel wireless card or something similar
* Hardware problem in intel wireless card
So what I thought to do now is set that the intel wireless card will not work too hard.
And I think I found a place to set it but I'm not sure.
In Device Manager I pressed right button on the intel wireless card and then I clicked on "Properties".
in "Advanced" tab i found that these are the options I can change:
My goal is to change everything that might cause the card to work harder ..
so i thought to change "Transmit Power" and ""Roaming Aggressiveness"
Both of them were defined to "5. Highest".
i changed it to "2. Medium-low".
i hope that it will solve the problem...

MSI GE60 0ND problems with graphics

Hi everybody.
I bought my MSI GE60 0ND about half a year ago, and I've recently restored it. This isn't the first time I've done that.
This time though, my graphics are really terrible. I've installed the proper drivers and even tried to use older drivers for the GPU just in case the driver was the trouble maker. According to notebookcheck.net my GeForce GTX 660m should be able to run a game like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive really smooth. This isn't the case, tough. When first starting it out, it runs with around 80-120fps, but after a few minutes, it's down to 30-50fps.
The power setting is set to "gaming". The driver is set to use the Nvidia graphics card both global and in-game. I've tried all kinds of different settings in-game.
Another thing worth mentioning is, that when I disable the integrated graphics (Intel HD Graphics 4000), the Nvidia driver suddenly can't find the GeForce gfx-card.
Does any one have an idea what is wrong? If you need more information, please just ask for it :-)
Thanks in advantage!

Are you playing while plugging in and charging?
It's charging :-)

What are your temperatures when the FPS drops? Use CoreTemp to measure the CPU and MSI Afterburner to measure the GPU. That's a good place to start. Report what the temperatures are when the FPS drops and we'll see if high temperatures are your issue or not.
Here is a screenshot .
The CPU-temperatur seems way too high, but I'm setting with the laptop on my lap, and it doesn't seem almost 100degrees to me :-D Could it be wrong?
BTW, does anything else seem weird to you?
And thanks for the help both of you! :-)
