MSI GT70-0NC - WiFi not responding and sound acts weird

I have a GT70 0nc and just changed the HDD with a Samsung 840 pro SSD, I installed the OS, all the drivers from MSI and I can't enable/disable wifi (from the button or Fn+F8) S-bar installed, also the audio is acting weird - I hear the sound in waves (the sound is going up and down) and I have installed the audio drivers from MSI. Please help!

I have updated the EC, I can confirm that the shortcut for wifi button is working (after installing the new EC, Windows was not booting... blue, after blue screen of "happiness" so this is why I got back late with an answer, I had to reinstall all: OS, drivers, programs... still installing at the moment).
I'm afraid that the sound is acting exactly the same - I hear the sound in waves (the sound is going up and down) when is configured to Quadraphonic, 5.1 or 7.1... any idea how can I fix this? I have installed the audio driver from MSI, after that tried the driver from Realtek and no change! :( ... on stereo the sound is ok, but I have a 5.1 System and I would like to use it... Thank you Svet, you are a lifesaver!!! Let me know if you can find a fix for audio or if someone else has a solution for this, please post it here, maybe other people are facing the same problem!
Update BIOS to the latest version 3.0R as well, which can fix audio glitches

MSI GT70 0NC Bluetooth not working, not a driver issue

My Bluetooth was working just fine until recently. If I try to receive files, I get a message saying that files cannot be sent since a connection cannot be established, I need to make sure the Bluetooth radio is plugged in. I tried reinstalling the drivers, but once again, I am getting a message: "The software removal you are attempting cannot proceed. To remove this software, please first be sure that the Intel(R) wireless adapter is correctly installed and enabled.". If I go to the device manager, I cannot find any Bluetooth device, which on the other hand, might be because the Bluetooth is part of the Intel wireless card. I have been cleaning the laptop on my own, by opening the "hood", is it possible to have disconnected something accidentally? I have no clue what to do, and I need the Bluetooth a lot. I don't want to do a system restore just because of the Bluetooth.

MSI GT70 0NC Firmware in Question? Which one is for my notebook?

I am a bit confused with the MSI firmware page for my MSI GT70 0NC Notebook. I'm running Windows 8 Pro 64-bit which one of these out of the list should I download to have the latest firmware revision for my notebook??? Confusing to see along list. Yes, my keyboard has the backlight leds.

I noticed 1504 says supports Windows 8 I flashed it and when I went into system bios I still see the same firmware version: ME FW Verision: 8.0.0.1351
Since you are using Windows 8, then go for 1504

I updated the system bios to the latest revision. Now I'm just hopping to do the firmware upgrade. It sounds like a two part bios update for the firmware based on your reply. Please clarify your statement?
Which BIOS ver you currently has?

MSI GT70 0NC 494 - Samsung 840 Evo Problem

I recently brought a Samsung 840 Evo 500GB to replace the WD Black HDD on my MSI GT70-0NC-494 laptop. OS is Windows 8. Im going type out pretty much how I ended up to where I am right now in hopes that maybe someone could catch where I went wrong.
So here's the story:
The cloning process went smoothly and I was able to load the OS from the SSD without any problems. Then I immediately updated the firmware and I set the optimizations using the Magician software.
I ran CrystalDiskMark and had speeds around ~300MB for both read and writes on the sequential test. Thought that my speeds were kind of slow when comparing them to the others I've seen. AHCI is on. I know my laptop has a SATA 2 and SATA 3 slot but I did plug the SSD in the SATA 3. SATA 3 connection is confirmed through Intel RST application and Samsung Magician. The speed is just not around the ballpark of what everyone is getting.
Ok, let's see the speeds with Rapid Mode so I turned on Rapid Mode and restarted. Then I get a "Start PXE over IPv6/4" message which then leads to the BIOS screen. Turn off laptop, turn it on, and get the same message. Turn off laptop again, turn it on, and the OS loads this time.
I thought that was weird but whatever I got to the OS, I thought. Open up Task Manager to see how Rapid Mode affects my RAM capacity since my regular usage already puts me ~1.5GB below max. 1.9GB shows up on RAM. Thought I'd be starting closer to 3GB. Then again, Im not entirely sure on how Rapid Mode works so whatever. Run the benchmark test through Magician software.
(This pic was from after I reinstalled Win 8 but the performance drop was similar)
Ok, , the read speeds is now garbage. Did the test on CrystalDiskMark and it shows similar results. It was late at night and Im feeling tired so I keep my laptop idle overnight to see if that would help. Nope, read speeds are still garbage. Surprisingly enough, CrystalDiskMark would show write speeds for sequential hitting ~1000MB/s so it seems that the write process is somewhat fine. The read process seems like it's broken.
So I turn off Rapid Mode and see if that fixes my read speeds. Restart. Get BSOD on startup. Turned laptop on and off multiple times to see if anything works but no avail. Thankfully I created a set of recovery disks 2 days ago so I immediately run that now. I was planning to restore the OS to factory install anyways so its fine.
OS is restored. At this point Im scared of installing the Samsung Magician software so I make a restore point. This time I want to see what happens if I install the software and run Rapid Mode through Win 8.1.
Seems like I can't just upgrade to 8.1 without installing a bunch of updates first so I do that. I got impatient so I went ahead and installed Magician and did the optimizations. CrystalDiskMark showed ~300MB/s for read and ~400MB/s for write. Ran the Magician benchmark and it produced the light blue bars on the screenshot above.
Let's try Rapid Mode now. Turn Rapid Mode on, restart, and I am again greeted with the "Start PXE over IPv6/4" message before hitting the BIOS. Now Im telling myself that I messed up again. Turned off the laptop and turned it on. OS is back. Awesome, only 1 try.
Did benchmarks on Magician which again showed that my read speeds were garbage (dark blue bars). I'm not even going to touch Rapid Mode for fear of having to reinstall the OS again. So now Im trying to upgrade to Win 8.1 and see if that fixes something.
Download 8.1, restart, I get some BSOD message with the code "0xC1900101 - 0X20017", restart through BIOS, and I get an error saying that 8.1 failed and Im being reverted to 8. Desktop loads up, I check Magician and my 840 Evo doesnt even appear on the drop down list. The software even says Rapid Mode is disabled even though I can see the Rapid Mode service through task manager.
Now Im just running tests, and restarting the laptop to install additional Windows updates. Upgrade to Windows 8.1 actually went through this time. After the update, Magician now says that Rapid Mode is on and my SSD again appears to be selectable. Read speeds seems to have gotten a *tiny bit* better but it is still extremely low.
Decided to say screw it, disabled Rapid Mode, restarted, again with the "Start PXE over IPv6/4". Turn off laptop, turn on, surprisingly no BSOD saying my system is forever broken. Now Im trying to see if I could salvage the performance back through messing with the settings so I followed most of the advice on another website.
Now it seems that the write speed is consistently good, but again the read speeds are absolutely horrid. I used AS-SSD for the benchmark instead of CrystalDiskMark this time.
And that is where I am right now. I am very sorry that the post is ridiculously long. I've been constantly looking around the internets to see if anyone has the same problem as me and I couldnt find a solution. I wanted to somewhat be detailed with my process so I can know whether this problem is the software or the MSI hardware. Or if the problem is with my specific SSD and that I'd have to RMA it.

How did you go about installing Windows?
It looks like the first time you used some software that ended up cloning it from the HDD to the SSD. That's a no-no in general, and I'd never trust it to work well.
Then the next time, you say you restored it. But you don't say if that was from the SSD/HDD or from recovery media that you had generated.
I'll be perfectly honest, I'd only trust installing from Recovery media when it comes to installing a new drive.
I'd say to do that. Install from Recovery media and see if that fixes the problem.
I will also say that a number of users have had issues with the Samsung 840 drives. Most of them were using the Samsung 840 Pro drives, not the EVO's, but just something to keep in mind. They were only able to get them to operate at SATA2 speeds.

MSI GT70 0NC Throttling

Hello,
I originally posted in the thread linked below but I though I'd post here as well. The original thread contains suggestions from other users as well as further information on what I've tried.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=183574.0
I have an MSI GT70 0NC.
While gaming, my FPS will drop, for example, from 60 to 30 FPS (when turning a game character around to view something else for example) or overall FPS seems low when comparing my specs to a games system requirements.
My laptop is also always plugged in, Turbo Boost is on and the fan button is on forcing the laptop fan to run at full blast while gaming.
Temperatures also seem fine.
I'm not sure if this is graphics card related or CPU related but it's pointing to GPU since one user observed that my card doesn't seem to be running up to it's specs.
I've tried the following:
-Reformatting and re-installing Windows and drivers
-Scanning for viruses
-Ensure up to date graphics drivers
-Setting Power Options to High Performance in Windows
-Setting my Nvidia graphics card as the default card used by my computer/specific games in the Nvidia Control Panel
-Set Prefer maximum performance under Power management mode in the Nvidia Control Panel
-Flashing BIOS with different versions
Any suggestions or input would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Quote from: Gel;113494
I have disabled both V-Sync in the Nvidia Control Panel and in-game and the issue persists.
Sorry for not making myself clear, I'm just saying that the 60/30 FPS is caused by the V-Sync.
According to the Afterburner log files, there is no throttling on your GT70 0NC, so I'm not sure what's the issue you have now.
Quote
overall FPS seems low when comparing my specs to a games system requirements.
If you're talking about the FPS score, I'd suggest to download the 3DMark 11 and run the P-score. The result will show you if there is a problem of the graphics or not.
It would be necessary to know the graphics driver version you're using.
:cool:Cheers!

MSI GT70 0NC Overclock Custom BIOS

Hey!
I have a MSI GT70 0NC. BIOS: E1762IMS.10U
i7 3610qm 670m
I'd like to overclock the CPU a little bit or at least to avoid the CPU throttling. Can you help me with a unlocked/custom Bios out?
I only donated one Euro, because I didn't know how much money, you want for your good work!
Of course I will donate more than just a Euro. Just tell me how much!
Thanks and keep up your good work!

About CPU throttling you can reflash to this MSI's test version:

Note that heat will be increased, if need i can offer you custom EC based on this one with improved FAN behavior to compensate the extra heat.

Cant turn on the VT-X on MSI GT70 0NC-029NE ?

Hello ! Im starting to learn about virtual computers and when i try to install a Virtual computer on my laptop (MSI GT70 0NC-029NE) it says that the "VT-X" is not enable. I have tryed to fix it in bios and looked on 20 clips about it but i dont get it to work. Im using VMWare and its Windows server 2012 im trying to instal as my "virtual" computer. So my question is can somebody help me with it ? I cant find were to turn on the VT-X. Or if its possible to do that on my computer. Ive read that on some laptops its just disable or you dont have the option to turn it on.
Help needed fast with love Kaffe !

Ok. Now i used the program and did everything 2 times. When it comes to the end in the program, It says that i already have the files or the "new" bios updates. I restarted the computer and took out the batterie and everything but its still the same thing. When i try to boot from the USB stick its just a black screen, And when i read the log file it says that i have the old Bios update.
So to make it short. I cant update it. It says that the files are the same but when i look they have diffrent name's. One of them have ---->
Mainboard: MS-1762
PCB Version: REV:1.0
BIOS Version: E1762IMS.10C
BIOS Date: 2012-04-26
EC-FW Version:
And the version im trying to install is -------> E1762IMS.10R <----------
So right now im just confused.

GT70 0NC SSD not working

Hi guys,
Just got a brand new Intel 520 240GB SSD and i have some problems. The SSD is installed on Port 1. My version have both ports 1 and 4 with SATA connectors. Searching on forums i saw that Port 1 is SATA 3 and 4 SATA 2.
1. Using my original HDD as boot and the SSD as secondary ... the SSD is not working with SATA 3 speed. I used lpm-fix and same thing ... it`s using SATA 2 speed. BIOS is updated and also AHCI selected.
2. Using the SSD as boot and other HDD disconnected ... i can`t install windows 7 64bit. Win setup starts, SSD listed when asked to select a disk to install. Setup start .... first setup restart begins .... after MSI logo the setup does not continue. What happens is Win Setup is running again from the beginning again and again ... this happens at first setup restart during Win setup. What i did was to remove the Win setup disk from the DVD only to see a new problem. After MSI logo the screen remains Black. Nothing happens ... no windows, no windows logo, no windows setup .... nothing.
What can i do to enable SATA 3 and also what can i do to make the SSD continue with Win 7 installation after restart and not starting from the beginning ?

What exact model of laptop do you have? Did it comes with Windows 7 pre-installed or Windows 8?
I assume it was with Windows 7 pre-installed.
I can't easily find the thread, but I assume you are installing the hard drive in the rear left hard drive bay when it is upside down and you're looking at it.
I had some free time today and managed to see what is happening. First let me answer your questions:
1. MSI GT70 0NC-066.
2. Windows 7 pre-installed.
3. I`m trying to install windows with the SSD placed in PORT 1 (rear left next to GPU).
I installed the SSD in my other port .. PORT 4 SATA 2. Everything is normal ... no problem at all, no errors. Windows installed drivers everything ...
From what i can see the problem is the port. Compatibility issues or the adapter have problems. When the SSD is in PORT 1 SATA 3 i get a lot of errors. For example many times the laptop does not see the SSD. When the laptop see the SDD the windows is not booting. All i get is Starting Windows (no logo) or a Black Screen.
Picture with Starting Windows (it stays like this for 1 min then auto reboot) :
Picture from BIOS when the laptop managed to see the SSD in PORT 1 SATA 3:
Picture with my laptop opened:
So the SSD works perfect with 0 problems in PORT 4 SATA 2. My problem starts when the SSD is in port 1 SATA 3.
Should i buy a new adapter for PORT 1 SATA 3 ? Or this could be a problem from motherboard ?

MSI GT70 0NC - upgrade from i5-3230M to i7-3610QM?

Hi Guys,
Can You upgrade MSI GT70 0NC from i5-3230M to i7-3610QM? Has anyone of You tried that? How does laptop perform after such change? Is it stable?
i5 is unfortunately not performing well, when I try to play with virtualisation, so I'm looking if I can simply get more powerfull i7 onboard. Then I'll add 16 GB of Kingston RAM + SSD drive, and it should perform well... I hope.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

MSI Gt70-0NC GPU Dead??

HI Guys,
I bought a MSI GT70-0NC last week and reinstalled Windows 7 immediately.
I got a GTX 675M 2GB Graphics Card in it and i cant start any Game with it. Neither i can install any drivers.
The first Problem is, that the Graphics Card puts out an error 43 in System-Manager.
Then there´s no Bios Information of the GPU Clock in GPU-Z.
I downloaded the latest VGA-Bios for MSI-Cards on Techpowerup.com and flashed it with nvflash:
and still got the same Problems.
I tried the Inf Modding for the Actual Graphics driver and the original Driver on the MSI-Homepage.
Still no Luck
Is there any other MSi Rom i need???
Is it even possible to get the Graphics card to work?
Pls guys, can u help me??? i´m running my Notebook with integrated Graphics at the Moment

i can get a GTX260m very cheap from a friend. Is there any possibillity to get this card working in the GT70??
The next best card for your laptop is going to be the 680m, it is quite a bit more powerful than the 675m and would actually be a pretty decent upgrade (the 675m wasn't that great to begin with). You should be able to get a 680m working from ebay, try and buy an MSI one, a Dell/Alienware one can still work but it you're more likely to run into problems, you'd also have to flash the MSI vbios.
Good luck

Host Not Responding and Needs Assistance
