MSI GT70-OND + GTX 680m or 8970m

Hi!
Looping for some serious help...
After some erratic behavior my i7 3rd gen GT70 just stopped working with MSI 680m 4GB. The card shows on occasions in manager, but both - discrete and HD4000 have no installed drivers and wont work unless 680 is plugged out (then intel kicks in without prob). That happened after some automatic driver updates and possibly BIOS update. Tried a ton of these and Bioses, rather randomly, trying to solve the disappearance of my 680m from control panel, but non of them worked. To make the things worse, I've messed with EC firmware editions trying the "beta" t25,21,16,17 - one of them bricked the lappi for good... Had MSI re-flash the bios (couldn't do the blind flash myself) but they say they can't help me with 680 since it is from GT60 originally and it's not supported by GT70 (I switched it from 675 to 680 in the other MSI laptop some 8 months ago - both worked without a problem until the issue). Don't have access to check my 680m in another MSI to check if it's working and is no hardware failure, but have access to 8970m from CLEVO for some decent bucks - was wondering which bios should I install to run it in my GT70 or which bios/EC firmware to flash so my old 680 start working again... This or that... Any idea? Guys? Svet? Sure will make the donation if needed of course!

  • MSI GT70 OND-492US Video Drivers.

    Hi,
    I bought a new GT70 OND-492US w/ GTX675MX video card.
    Initially when I got it, if I ran a game that would use the video card, the video driver and game would then crash.
    So I tried updating the drivers from MSIs website, same issue.
    Tried updating the drivers from Nvidias website, same issue.
    Reset the computer, same issue.
    Uninstalled/restarted/reinstalled the drivers from the device manager, same issue.
    I submitted a support request and the response was just to update drivers off MSIs website/the included CD/reset the laptop.
    Any ideas?

    Was afraid that's what it would come to.
    Thanks for the response.
    Have any sort of best guess on turnaround time for MSI service?

  • MSI Gt70 dominator gtx 870m touch panel issue

    Hi!
    The touchpanel of mine msi gt70 dominator stopped working after I upgradded the EC.
    I cant use the Fan boost anymore. I still can activate or deactivate wifi through SCM but there is no option to use the Fanboost. Can anyone help me ?

    Yes you probably need BIOS too to work with newest EC.
    But tell what are your current BIOS and EC versions 1st,
    look for them in BIOS setup system information

  • MSI GT70 2PE - GTX 880M Not boosting

    Hi,
    I have a gtx 880m which has never boosted, the nominal clock is 954MHz and 993MHz of boost. Neither games or synthetic tests make the card reach the boost clocks. I have recently changed my vbios to the new version MSI has uploaded, also, overclocking does not work, the card reaches a maximum of 954MHz.
    Monitoring using MSI afterburner, newest drivers, temps around 75ºC under load.
    I would appreciate any advice if anyone knows what could I do.

    Did you update the latest BIOS and EC firmware of your model first?
    And suggest you use the NVIDIA graphic driver from MSI (not from NVIDIA) to test again.

  • Serial number MSI GT70 OND

    Hi,
    I currently have a technical issue with my laptop. I need the serial number to register on MSI website.

  • MSI GT70 OND-492

    So I am about to pull the trigger on this laptop  GT70 0ND-492US.. Anything I should know. I was looking at other vendors and no one seems to come close to the price for what you get.  Anyone have this laptop? Any PROS/CONS you could list for me. It will be used as a desktop replacement. For gaming and watching BluRay movies on the go. All comments welcome!

    Thanks for the heads up. I didn't know what kind of headroom the CPU has in these.  I will talk to him about the GPU thing.
    Also I am looking at either a Samsung 840 pro 128GB or OCZ Vector 128GB. Will both of these work? Anyone currently using either one of these SSD in their laptops?
    Many users have had issues with the Samsung 840 Pro...I would steer clear of it personally.
    As far as OCZ, I still steer clear of them after all the various issues they've had in the past with the many drives they've put out there.
    I can't speak very much about it to be honest. I have the dual mSATA raid option on mine, and I'm using 2 x Sandforce based drives in it.
    If it was up to me, I'd get almost ANY of the Intel SSD's and be done with it. There shouldn't be any compatibility issues with the Intel based ones.

  • [MSI-GT70 2OD]Gtx 780m & Tes Online & fan problems

    So here we go.
    it's a week (since the early teso release) im stuck with this "HUGE" problem.
    this is my configuration:
    -i7 4700mq
    -32gb ram
    -gtx 780m
    -triple ssd raid0
    guess this should be enough to run everything at least with an average quality. but it doesnt.
    everything but tes goes fine (even furmark) and the gpu barely runs over 60-65° degrees.
    with tes is an entire different question, since even with low settings(or the suggested settings from nvidia geforce experience) i get a no-sense fan noise due to the overwork of my gpu.
    the result is playing on an airstrip or not at all.
    i've read some people got fps problems with the same gpu/pc, i think this is the same, just my gpu works more than intended to fix the issue.

    I'm not entirely certain what the problem here is....you haven't really clearly defined what it is. no-sense fan noise? What?
    Most likely there's a configuration error and that's the real problem. Or it could be a problem with The Elder Scrolls Online (I assume that's the game you're talking about).
    But until it's clearly defined, we can't really do much to help you.

    Compatible videos in iPhoto should show up under the item "iPhoto Videos" near the top of the list in the Events Library. Click on this item to reveal all the clip thumbnails in the Events viewer. Drag clips in the normal way to a project. Note that videos in iPhoto are not accessible in the same manner as photos, which you drag from the Photo panel in iMovie.
    As your Canon G11 shoots in H.264 format (in a .mov container), the clips should import directly to iMovie without the need to import first to iPhoto. I'm assuming you are using iMovie '11 (or possibly iMovie '09).

  • CPU options on GT70 OND?

    Hello, I'm currently looking at getting an MSI GT70 OND laptop from my local shop in Melb, AU. Here are the specs and price:

    Dimensions:   428 x 288 x 55mm
    Warranty:   2 Years Pickup & Return Warranty
    I only have one problem, they have told me that there is no options on the CPU, I have to get it with the i7-3630QM. Despite it being a very good CPU, is this true? Are the GT70 OND laptops only built with these CPUs? On US websites like xoticpc there is the options of CPU's up to supercharged 4.2GHz ones, plus on the MSI website it specifically says on the specifications of the OND that I can get the latest i7, which I interpret as; there is a range on possible CPUs I can have.
    The reason this is a problem for me is I mainly want to use the system for Microsoft Flight Simulator X. This program is nearly entirely CPU bound in terms of FPS. So if possible, I would like to try and get this laptop with the slightly faster i7-3740QM or something similar.
    Is this a possibility?

    Quote from: bblue on 10-January-13, 00:12:41
    I was looking at a possible CPU upgrade on my GT70-0ND to get the VT-d part of virtualization.  I'd like to run a small XP machine there, and a little higher step speed wouldn't hurt either.  The 3630QM doesn't support VT-d, though I am able to create a new virtual engine with no problem.  I read in another thread that some were reporting a failure just by defining a new engine.  I didn't put an OS on mine yet, and it lets me know that.  But no VT-d errors.
    Can you update to as high as a Core i7-3840QM (same size and power) without board or BIOS changes?
    --Bill
    At this point in time, MSI doesn't whitelist any parts.....the bios should be able to support any chip that fits into the socket, although it might need a little tweaking (see the bios section, where svet can make you a custom bios if need be).
    What I would do, is look at the reseller sites (such as xoticpc, gentechpc, and such) and see what CPU options that they offer. Then decide which one you want and find a way to get that CPU (ebay is pretty easy). Installation isn't that difficult in the GT70 series.
    I'll probably be upgrading at some point in the near future to either a 37xx or 38xx series CPU. (assuming I remembered the numbers right)
    EDIT:
    Gentechpc offers the following CPU's on the GT70 barebones model:
    3610QM
    3630QM
    3720QM
    3740QM
    3820QM
    3840QM
    3920QM
    3940XM
    I'd be wary of the 39xx parts due to them being 55W. The 38xx parts are still 45 watt parts.
    While the cooling system can handle the 55W parts, you would probably limit your ability to do any overclocking (if you do that sort of thing).
