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.

GT70 2PE Dominator Pro increasing static/white noise during different games.

Hello.
I'm quite in a predicament here. I have an MSI GT70 2PE Dominator gaming laptop.
Every time I play a game[doesnt matter which one, ones demanding high specs and also with games that can run on toasters :p ] after a couple of minutes I start hearing this increasing static, white noise coming from my speakers or headset. After a couple of moments it also sort of disables my microphone as well. IE When in in VoiP while playing a game, after the noise increases my mic also stops working.
I tried everything I could think of. Reinstall drives, format the laptop, all the little advice people give in other threads about this kind of problem. I also sent it into repairs and they said it was fixed but alas it still isnt. I tried using different power adapters and that doesnt seem to make a difference.
One interesting thing is that when I just play on batter power - no issues at all. As soon as I plug in the adapter - the noise start building up again.
Anyone has any ideas what might help?
Running Windows 8.1 and realtek audio for the sound.

I ended up buying a pair of USB headphones so i could have sound while playing video games. I would recommend you do the same.

GT70 2PE Dominator Pro Turbo Boost Doubt

Hi!
I'm new into MSI laptops and I've bought an GT70 PE Dominator Pro.
All buttons and apps work perfect but when I press the G button nothing happens. It just light for a second and nothing else. My question is: How can I enable de Boost in this laptop?
Thank you very much!!

The turbo boost feature is automatic. As long as your power settings include it. Typically only high performance is the only one that allows turbo boost. Turbo boost is only activiated if windows power settings allow for 100% cpu. 99% or anything lower disables turbo boost. This is typically set up this way, because of battery life. Running turbo boost, even when not needing this top speed, will make the chip run as fast as it needs to, so running cpu at 99% limits this turbo feature, but still leaves the 2.7ghz. This greatly increases battery. Personal experiences with this, I run high performance, and then I run the msi 'office' power settings. Doing stuff like this (web browsing ect) will get me 2-3 hours high performance setting, and 4-5 hours on office.
The turbo boost speeds you 'claim' 3.7 are only for single core. I'm not 100% sure, but it goes something like 1 core 3.7, 2 cores active its 3.5, and all 4 cores is something like 3.2. This is all non overclocked. And the biggest things with the 4810 chips that's in our gt70 dominator pro laptops is actually hindered by the tdp of the chip. The tdp is 47w. And unless you get the 4960mx chip, all the i7's have this 47w limit. That is, the total amount of wattage the chips will or can allow. So typical 'gaming' or 'workstation' loads, with turbo boost active, you will typically see 3.299 ghz. Those programs are very much typically multi core (4 core) loads.
I hope this helps. If not, just post a more specific question.

Hello bintug_esen,
According to the spec of DVI, the 144Hz is totally out of the performance of the DVI, even the HDMI cable can't do that.
DVI spec:
Single: 1920x1080@60Hz
Dual: Limited by copper bandwidth limitations, DVI source limitations, and DVI sync limitations.
I am wondering why your external monitor can't get the signal via the mini DP to DP cable. Did you try to press Fn+F2 to switch on the signal output?
like RX-8 said to get the 144Hz to work you need to use DisplayPort or w.e it's called since HDMI and DVI wont meet it's requirements to handle 144Hz

Unlocked BIOS requested for GT70 2PE Dominator Pro BIOS E1763IMS.51B

Svet,
Could you create for me an unlocked BIOS of BIOS version E1763IMS.51B.
I need it for the windows phone virtual machines ... I need to enable hardware virtualization support.
Why on earth is vt-x not enabled???
Sv.

Let me explain a bit more... I am using visual studio and want to emulate windows phone on windows. Thus the hardware requirements are that i need to have activated:
Hardware requirements for Hyper-V
1.A 64-bit (x64) processor ◦Windows Server 2008 was the last 32-bit (x86) Windows Server release and Windows Server 2008 32-bit version *does not* include Hyper-V
2.Hardware Virtualization Assists in the form of:
◦Intel VT-x (initially codenamed Vanderpool)
◦AMD AMD-V (also called SVM and initially codename Pacifica)
3.Hardware Data Execution Prevention (DEP*):
◦On Intel processors this is called Execute Disable (XD). This feature must be enabled in the system BIOS.
◦On AMD processors this is called No Execute (NX). This feature must be enabled in the system BIOS.
Note: When you enable hardware assisted virtualization (Intel VT or AMD AMD-V) in the BIOS, you must TURN THE SYSTEM OFF. NOT REBOOT. OFF.
Hyper-V R2 and SLAT Hardware
For traditional server virtualization or virtualization desktops without RemoteFX, SLAT hardware is not required, but HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for improved performance.
•On Intel systems this is called Extended Page Tables (EPT)
•On AMD systems this is called Nested Page Tables (NPT) or Rapid Virtualization Indexing (RVI)
These features are usually on by default. If there are BIOS options, enable them.
NOTE: For virtualizing desktops using RemoteFX, SLAT hardware is REQUIRED. To take advantage of SLAT hardware, you must be running Windows Server 2008 R2 or later or Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 or later. Previous versions (Windows Server 2008/2008 SP2 & Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008/2008 SP2) do not support SLAT hardware and will simply ignore these hardware capabilities.
Hyper-V : What to Disable in the BIOS
There are some hardware features that Hyper-V does not utilize and enabling them will prevent Hyper-V from loading. Specifically, please be sure that:
•Intel VT-d is disabled
•Trusted Execution is disabled
If either of these options is enabled, Hyper-V won’t launch and errors will be posted to the Event Log, for example:
•Event ID 41: Hyper-V Launch failed; Either VMX not present or not enabled in the BIOS
•Event ID 32: Hyper-V Launch failed; At least one of the processors in this system does not appear to provide a virtualization platform supported by Hyper-V
My question: Are these options properly set in the bios, because windows refuses to execute the virtual machine.
Hopefully it helps...

MSI GT70 2PE Dominator Pro popping (crackling) noise

I bought this laptop a few days ago and I noticed a popping (or crackling) sound coming from the speakers of the laptop. At first I thought it was a problem with the speakers so I plugged in my earphones but the noise was still there. I already tried installing the newest drivers but nothing happened, so I don't have any other ideas on how to solve this problem. I also checked the configuration of the speakers properties and the Realtek HD sound manager but it didn't help at all. If anyone could please help I would be very grateful because the noise is irritating and frustrating me a lot already.

yes its possible

MSI GT70 2PE Dominator Pro - KLM

Just putting the finishing touches on an upgrade and installing all the drivers.
Have done lots of searching but the driver or software for KLM (Keyboard LED Manager)
seems to be missing from the download support page for this laptop, anyone know where i can find KLM.

For your model, install Steelseries Engine (SSE) for keyboard LED control.
KLM is used for earlier models or Workstation series.

Fan Control Locked on GT70 2PE Dominator Pro?

if breached, "Will void the Warranty."
Can I ask where you're located? Because in Europe (and USA I believe), removing the sticker will not void the warranty if you don't do any damage. And that applies to notebooks and graphics cards. But if you rather not believe me, contact MSI and ask if you can reapply paste. Also anyone with experience with MSI products can actually approve what I just said

GT70 2PE Dominator Pro: Is it safe to turn on cool boost 2 everytime playing a game?

I was wondering if it is safe for the computer and the fan to run it at max everytime I play a game. The reason I do that is because I want my GPU and CPU to remain at a relatively safe temperature around 55-75 C. If I don't turn on cool boost 2 the GPU temperature rise up over 80 C.

The temp head up to 90C+, its designed to handle those temps
you no need to use it all the time

GT70 2PE Dominator Killer WLAN problem

Hello everyone.
I recently bought a GT70 2PE Dominator Pro gaming computer.
As I grew tired of Windows 8.1 in a few days, I installed Windows 7, 64 instead.
After having set the BIOS and all that to Legacy, so that I could install and run Windows 7, I ran into problems with the Killer LAN drivers.
I downloaded all drivers, chipset etc. including the Killer Network Manager from the MSI support page, but the WLAN still isn't working. In the administration of the computer, it can find it OK, but says that it can't start this device.
I have followed every guide I could find with both trying installing the drivers 'clean', using the KillerCleaner etc., but still nothing works.
Is there any more help to find?
Thank you
Jonas, Denmark

Not maximum size after upgrading the SSD on GT70 2PE Dominator

I have a GT70 2PE Dominator Pro.
i upgraded the SSD to increase the size to be able to install more games.
I removed the two SSD (128g each under raid 0) and replaced with one Samsung EVO series 500g SSD.
But after running the recovery DVD on the new SSD, the program split the new SSD into two partitions.
one partition has 270g (OS install ) and the other 180g (data).
How do i recover the system with the new SSD (500g) with only one partition? so that i could have bigger space on drive C:

Hi emorterajr,
There might be a way to use your Recovery DVD so that it allows you to control the partitioning of your new SSD. But I'm not familiar with it. It would be helpful to know how your SSD was partitioned to begin with. It might have been partitioned into those partitions from the factory. If it was, then you simply need to re-partition it like you want before using the Recovery DVD.
It is also possible to eliminate your 180 GB partition, then expand your 270 GB partition into that area and thereby make your "C" drive as big as possible. You'll need to obtain partitioning software that will do that. There used to be several programs available years ago for that purpose but I'm not sure what is available now. The trick is to grow your 270 GB partition without erasing it---many partitioning programs would erase your 270 GB partition if you resize it. But it can be done without losing anything---you just have to get the right software.
About capacity, the advertised size of an SSD or HD is almost always its unformatted capacity. Once the drive has been partitioned and formatted, the usable capacity is always less. Plus, if you are savvy and wise you'll understand about "wear leveling" which is used by SSDs to distribute use evenly across the entire storage area in order to prevent premature failure. This "wear leveling" works best if you leave a portion of your SSD unallocated. You'll read different advice around the internet about this. Some say to leave 5% unallocated. Others claim you need to leave 20% unallocated. I use 10%. What this means is that you'll only partition a total of 90% of the available capacity of your SSD and leave the remaining 10% unpartitioned. Obviously, this further reduces the available storage capacity.
Leaving part of our SSD unallocated is not essential---your SSD will operate okay even if its full capacity is allocated. But this technique will help you get the best life from your SSD and it will help it to maintain its read/write performance over that lifespan.
Kind regards, David

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
