MSI GT60 2PC keyboard backlight problem

The keyboard backlight effects are not working for me on this laptop. Only Normal and Gaming work. Breathing, Wave, Dual color and Audio dont work even when it says active layer. Help me with this problem. Thank you

Can you tell what OS are you using, BIOS and EC version and also SteelSeries Engine version?
Have you already try to update the EC firmware and re-install the SteelSeries Engine?

MSI GT60 2PC Dominator BIOS Update RAID0 problem

HI THERE , this is my first topic in msi forum and I hope you can solve my problem
I have the MSI GT60 2PC Dominator, my laptop came with FreeDOS with E16F4IMS.50Y non raid0 bios version (installed only one msata 128Gb), One day i upgraded my Laptop, I installed two more msata 128Gb. Now 384Gb Raid0 hard disk and i installed windows 8.1 64bit (Working UEFI mode).
I flashed the bios yesterday to the E16F4IMS.515 which is the latest one but it seems that it doesn't support the RAID0, i didn't care about that, i installed windows 8 but everyday i'm getting several problems with GPU and that blue screen and its really annoying.
So i tried to upgrade E16F4IMS.715 , But Flash_BIOS_by_UEFI_BIOS_Setup_Utility_e n.pdf this method not supported my laptop (Automatically restart after select bios file.), And i tried too EFI Shell mode bios update. But there is no Afuefix64.edi and FLASH.NSH files in New bios zip file. It has only E16F4IMS.715 file.
Now my question is How can i flash the bios to E16F4IMS.715?
Sorry for my bad English and i thanks for your corporation.

Hello and welcome to the forum!
Sadly there is only 1 person that is able to help you with flashing procedure, but also directing you to the right BIOS file, and it's Svet. You might have to wait a little bit, as you may already know, it's users to users forum, and we come up when we can and if we actually want to.
What way did you flash the BIOS?
I used EFI BIOS utility method. I chose BIOS file and when i click OK button , it starts normally after 20-30sec. it doesn't update bios. How ever it works on E16F4IMS.515 (Non-RAID) bios updated successfully. But not working E16F4IMS.715 (RAID0) bios.

MSI GT60-2PC Review w/Benchmarks

Hey guys, it's me again
Here is quick review video on the MSI GT60 2PC-442US I did in March. I know it's a photo "chop" shop mostly, but you can quick ahead to the benchmarks reviews.
More video reviews to come!!

hey, maybe you can use the tool to export your system config so we can try to give advice. However, fan speed raising is the effect of the heat not the cause of the fps issue.

MSI GT60 2PC Dominator-- Loads of problems trying to install Win8 onto SSD

Hi guys,
I really, really hope someone can help me!
I recently purchased GT60 2PC Dominator-626 which is awesome. However, it doesn't come with an SSD so I've got a Crucial M500 which I've installed. I'm trying to move over my Win8 install to this drive so that I can have my OS and most used programs on the SSD, but I've been having sooo many problems in doing this. I've tried using cloning software but no luck, whenever I clone the drive and enter bios or boot menu, it will never boot from the SSD.
What I'd be really happy to do is have a fresh install of Win8 onto the SSD, but when I try to reset my PC using the MSI UEFI settings, i will never give me the option to re-install to the SSD, only the original HD.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thank you!

Well after trying LOADS of different cloning options, I finally found a way to get my SSD work with this laptop:
I opened Burn Recovery from the app page, used that to create 5 x DVD back up of the system.
Then I removed the old HD, leaving only the SSD in. Placed the first recovery disc in and booted from DVD/CD drive.
Followed that process and now I have an install of Win8 with the MSI stuff on my SSD. I then just got Win8 running, inserted the old HD and reformatted it!

Changing keyboard colors in MSI GT60 2PC series under Linux

Hi,
I intend to buy myself a laptop and I just would love to get one of MSI GT60 series but the thing is... I'm a nerd [']... ;(
I will use Linux Debian or Gentoo on it and want to ask you about the compatibility with penguin. This multi-colored keyboard is great I love it but will I be able to customize it under Linux? What about other drivers?
Yeah I know installing linux on gaming laptop is stupid but oh well. :P
Thanks in advance

I did run Linux Mint on my GT70 for a while,and as you may know Linux handles drivers in a different way to Windows.I didn't need any drivers at all to make the system functional,or indeed any system I have installed Linux on so far.I did download proprietary drivers for the Nvidia card but that was it. As for the keyboard,and in my case the S-Bar I didn't find any drivers for them,but then again I didn't really need them.
Linux didn't stay on it for long though,as a gamer I was limited by what was available for the OS.
If you want to see what your system runs like on Linux without upsetting the current OS try a 'Live' USB boot of any flavour of Linux,but you may know that already anyway if you are into it.

Multiple MSI GT60 2PC Dominator Problems

This thing is a beast when it comes to running games and getting my work done, but there are so many problems that seem to sprout up every twenty seconds that I'm really starting to regret not getting another laptop.
Anyway, I have several problems that I had to make an account to get help for, since there is no help whatsoever in the manual or elsewhere online.
1.) When the computer is completely shut off, and I press the power button, it seems to start up for a moment (you can hear the fans start to whirl and whatnot), but then it turns back off. It then repeats this process for a random amount of time before it actually starts up (if it starts up at all).
2.) The special keys that came on the computer, such as "cooler boost", "Display off", and "Dragoon Gaming Center" haven't been working properly. While the cooler boost still functions well, the Gaming Center icon and the Display Off button no longer respond to me pressing them. I mostly used Dragon gaming center to see how hot my CPU and GPU were running, but now it refuses to work whatsoever.
3.) The "Fn key + F5" and other combinations no longer work. As in, I can no longer set my computer to eco mode or anything like that. The only function that seems to still work is when I want to turn off my keyboard backlight, but other than that, the Fn key seems broken somehow.
Please help, it's very frustrating trying to deal with all this and finding no help online whatsoever.

The information you give us is limited and symptom only, no other information such as OS, BIOS, EC, and app version which make it difficult to give advise. But for issue No. 1, maybe it is mechanical problem. when power button is hit, somehow the button get stuck or sink and then accidentally the power button is hit again which cause system shutdown.
For issue 2 and 3, make sure you have installed correct SCM version and EC firmware for your system.

Problems with Droid Pro keyboard backlight problem

The keyboard backlight on the Mororola Droid Pro goes out when it is totally dark ever since OTA to 2.3.3. Any suggestions for a fix (don't say battery pull, yada, yada (doesn't work), or click home twice then backspace (not a true fix, but a workaround) or rooting the phone (doesn't fix). Seems to be a software glitch. Backlight qworked well in 2.2.

Why cant Verizon pushout OTA update to fix the problem instead of making all of us come to the store for a reflash? It would make more sense IMHO.

I understand your frustration and I'm here to help.
I have researched the issue with the backlight on the Droid Pro and found that other user have had this same issue after the software update. Other users have found that performing a hard reset and then taking the phone into a store and having the device software flashed has fixed their issue with the backlight. I suggest you try the hard reset and then take your phone in to a VZW store to have flashed.
If you continue to have issues after the hard reset and flash, please post back and I will be more than happy to further assist you.

MSI GT60 0ND 675M Throttling Problem (NEED HELP)

Hello MSI Forum
I have 2 year old MSI GT60 0ND with Intel i7-3630QM and Nvidia GTX 675M with 2GB GDDR5 memory.
My problem is focused to all games. After few minutes playing game fps starts to drop frequently under 30 fps.
But after few seconds it comes back to normal state.
I have cleaned fan from dust and it doesnt have any effect. Also running fan on turbo mode doesnt have any noticable effect.
- Never updated bios
- Running Windows 8.1
- Always updating drivers.
- Intel speedstep is disabled, no effect.
I think its problem with CPU throttling but i cant find any thread to help with issue.
Anyone can help me?
Thx in advance!

Hi ijimma,
1. Does the problem happen recently? If so, then maybe some driver or system update has caused the problem.
2. Check the FAQ and see if turning off the HDD power saving function. (http://www.msi.com/faq/nb-977.html)
3. What's the current graphics driver version? (this msi tool helps to export all driver version and installed programs, so sharing the text file to us can let us know better about your system environment.)

MSI GT60-0NC SCM Bluetooth Problem!

I own a MSI GT60-0NC Notebook. I have made a clean install of Windows 8 Pro. After that I installed SCM. But I have a problem. When I run SCM, bluetooth enters an endless loop which turns on and of with 1 second of delay without touching. What can cause this? Should I update BIOS? It will be my last choice though. Thanks in advance

I had the SAME Problem with a GT70 bought on the 13.9.13!
I update BIOS & EC!
Now there is no loop, but i cant activate or deactivate BT. Win8 sasy its on, but no LED!
Think this is a big BUG from MSI.
At the old BIOS version you can uninstall SCM and reinstall KLM, than it works but no ECO/Fly Shortcut.
With the new BIOS & EC the shortcuts work fine after clean install without SCM but no ECO & Fly shortcut. With SCM there is the BT issue and after deinstalling SCM no shortcuts work any more.
MSI PLZ fix it!
Place: Austria
Edit:
I tried it with the KLM & SCM NEW Version from the GT70 Dragon Extrem 2 Edition.......
Same BT Issiu -.-

MSI GT60 buy keyboard?

Hi I buyed a MSI GT60 online and it comes with a US Keyboard.
I want a spanish keyboard, anyone knows where to buy or if MSI can sell to me? The MSI GT60 is commercialized in Spain too but with different specs.
Thanks.

Ask MSI: >>How to contact MSI.<< Most likely it is not possible to convert a US version that way.

Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.
