The keyboard on my GE70 2PE Apache Pro is not working.

The other night I was watching a movie on battery power. I started to shut down unused programs in the notification window. I exited the steelseries program, hoping it would shut off the keyboard lights. Now when I open the steelseries program, it says I don't have a connected device. Any ideas? Thank you.

nevermind. I am a dumba**. got it worked out. thank you anyway.

  • GE70 2PE Apache Pro - Bluetooth not fully functional

    Hi. I just bought the laptop mentioned in the subject line and I have not been able to get Bluetooth to work fully. Everything shows up normally and correctly in the Device Manager and the System Tray, but connecting to my iPhone sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. When it does connect, I'm not able to stream music to the GE70's speakers nor place or accept calls via the laptop. I'm able to do all of these things with the same iPhone (5, iOS v7.1.2) with 2 of my other computers without any problems.
    I have the latest Bluetooth drivers MSI makes available, the latest BIOS, and all of the latest Windows updates as of 9/7/2014. I'm running Windows 8.1 64-bit. I've tried the latest Intel drivers (the GE70 is using the Intel AC 3160) and it didn't help. I've reverted back to the latest MSI drivers/software.
    Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

    Look at this post....

  • Ge70 2pe apache pro change keyboard color

    Hey I have the ge70 2pe apache pro.  How do i change the keyboard color?  It did not come with any cd or drivers.

    Do you have pre-installed OS or you install the OS by yourself?
    Install the SteelSeries Engine and by using Fn+1, 2, 3, 4, you can change different keyboard layer and set the keyboard's backlight color in the SteelSeries Engine control panel.

  • GE70 2PE Apache Pro with unstable ping in dota2

    Hi, I've just recently bought a GE70 2PE Apache Pro bout a month. Brand new laptop with only steam and dota2 install. Having this anoying problem with the unstable ping and spike in dota2. The ping goes from 80ms to 400ms + in seconds and comes back down to 90 again. This lag happens every 15 to 20 seconds. Warrantty changed a new wifi-card but still this problem wasnt fixed at all. Game seems to be fine with lan cable on. Wifi router connection stable and fine.
    Any suggestions or what is causing this problem?:mad:

    I am currently running with the setting like Tobi said since i get my computer which is a week ago. But it does not help  or solve the issue. In Malaysia, I do not know whether the router(you mentioned) in our market or not. Between, I have run some ping test and sent over the results to MSI. Well, they will collect my laptop and take it back for some test. So, if they gave me a proper solution, I will inform here. Quote from: hch;111131
    LAN does not related to the wireless connection, so there will be no influence even if the LAN can work properly.
    The settings from Tobi should help improving the situation.
    (I've seen many people from other forums talk about those settings fix their issue.)
    Have you tried using a router which supports the 802.11n or 802.11ac?
    Intel AC wireless adapter is quiet new to the market and according to your router information, both router only supports 802.11 b/g. It's possible that they have some compatibility issues with the ac adapter.
    There are many people talking about the performance of the AC wireless adapter and apparently for now, its best performance can be presented when connecting to the ac router in 5GHz bandwidth.
    Another thing you might want to have a look on:

    Since you're using the 4G hotspot, make sure that you keep the metered connections OFF to prevent any restrict data usage.

  • [Solved] ge70 2pe apache pro touchpad problem

    hey, my msi ge70 2pe apache pro when connect with a mouse, its touchpad cannot function.. what's the problem??

    Like IronHide said, it's a default setting which disable the thouch-pad while a external mouse is plugged in.
    But you can change this setting in the mouse properties.

    my bluetooth says 'Not Available' how do i get it to work again. I have restarted the computer several times and have replaced the batteries in both the keyboard and mouse and yet it still is not working! please help

    I have had the same problem. It was cured by turning computer off and/or restarting it. I am not sure  if once was enough. I think shutting down must cut out whatever it is that blocks bluetooth. Good luck

  • [Help!] A problem with the display of my GE60 2PE Apache Pro

    I just got a new GE60 2PE Apache Pro and this is my first msi laptop I've ever had. I don't know what's seem to be the cause of my msi, but the display is always black and kind of glitchy at first when I just start it up.
    The msi logo and the Windows 8's blue flag is also displaying fine, but after that on other Windows 8 OS, it's suppose to show the password screen. But instead, it's just black with several glitching white color. It's solved after pressing the windows button + P, which is supposed to control the dual monitor settings. After that, I checked on the display settings in the control panel and my device manager it's like this:
    From the display settings and device manager, it seems that I kind of like have two monitors installed in my msi. It looks like one monitor for my Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600, and the other one is for my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 860M, although I don't know which one's running which. And it seems like the default display screen on my msi is the 2nd monitor (See from the display settings in control panel) because the 1st monitor is like plain black or acted like a projector in which I can either duplicate, extend, or turn it off using the PC Screen Only option when I press the windows + P.
    But thinking back to every time I turn on my msi, the screen is black and I have to press windows + P to be able to actually see the display. Does this mean that every time I turn the PC on, the monitor is running the 1st one while the actual thing is running in the 2nd screen?
    Is there any way to fix this so every time I turn it on I don't have to press windows + P to actually see the display? I'm having trouble because sometimes pressing windows + P doesn't work and I have to restart again using the power button to try and see does the windows + P will work the second try. Please help

    Delete, remove, uninstall, whatever term you'd like to use for getting rid of it from your device manager.
    Disabling it won't help, it'll still be there.
    Judging by what I'm seeing, there's an extra entry for a monitor and it's most likely the issue that's causing your screen to misbehave.
    Okay, so here's an update about the current situation:
    I did gather up the courage to uninstall both Generic PnP Monitor from the Device Manager. Everything seems okay after I uninstalled it, the screen is not off, it's just as before. After I uninstalled both monitors from the Device Manager, I tried to see the Display Settings, but it is still showing two monitors (With the 2nd monitor displaying my actual screen and the 1st is plain black). I thought maybe it has to be restarted for it to take effects. So I shut it down, and boot it again (Because so far just doing a normal restart won't occur with the black screen. The "shut down and boot" is how do the black screen occurs again.) I really hope that the problem is fixed, but it's still the same. Showing the black screen with some glitching white stripes, and I have to press the Windows + P to get to the actual screen again. After I look up the Device Manager again, here's what's shown:
    The Generic PnP Monitor showed up again! And it's two of them. So is there any other solution or any idea of what's causing this?
    Thanks for all the help so far.

  • MSI GE70 2PE APACHE PRO WORKS AWFUL

    I recently bought this i also got a ge60 with a gtx660m and it actually works better than this. I get low fps and even stutter while i playing
    i checked the the temps and they are 60(gpu) 95(cpu) just after 5 min for a decent game. I cant even play dota with really low graphical settings i take care of my computer really well i think(all driver are up to date, and i clean my pc with CCleaner and etc. ). I have nothing to do and i am really frustrated for this situation. Anyone with any ideas that would help ?
    Model : GE70 Apache Pro 2PE-406TR
     Intel® Core™ i7-4710HQ 2.5GHz
    Chipset : Intel HM86
     16 GB DDR3L 1600 MHz
    Ram: 16GB
    GeForce GTX 860M 2GB GDDR5
    128GB SSD + 1 TB HDD 7200rpm

    I meant while cpu is 90-95 degrees, core speed sometimes decreases as 1/3 for a moment(that moment pc stutters) so this happens for a short moment but like 12-13 times in a minute. And because of that i couldn't capture the moment it stutters but i can give a normal capture from the moments cpu is 90-95 degree if that helps. thank you

  • GE70 2PE Apache Pro overheating

    Hello guys,
    I recently bought an Apache Pro. It has some amazing hardware and looks very good, but it overheats fast. I was playing games like dead island, sniper elite v2 and saw my CPU temperature go up to 95 °C. I had the cooler booster turned on, elevated the laptop from my desk and had a fan blowing cool air beneath the laptop (sort of an improvised cooling pad).
    My question: are these temperatures even normal? What's the point in having a beastly laptop when you have to play a game with lowest settings to avoid overheating? :s
    greetings,
    Somebassdude

    if your fan is ok then you need to do few steps
    1- go to the windows power management by clicking on battery icon
    2- choose balaced power plan click on change plen
    3-click on advanced power setting and popop window will open
    4- from the list choose processor power management
    5-select maximum processor state
    6-change those values to 75% from 100% both on battery and plugged in
    this limit your will processor max 75% so your processor will not overheat and you wont notice diffrence in gaming so only makes sure that your processor is cooler also when you want to play game before you start press the fan button make sure you pre cool the system

  • Tech help needed! ge70 2pe apache pro, wi-fi disabled.

    Hi All.
           So there I was bumbling along on my month old msi and suddenly the wi-fi turns off. Now, everytime I try to turn it back on I get the dpc watchdog violation and a restart. I have tried doing it the normal way, through the service manager and by troubleshooting and applying the fix to turn it on. Every time is hangs for 15 seconds and blue screens on me. Running windows 8.1 and this is the first issue I have had and it's quite a major one for a gaming machine!!
    Anybody have the slightest clue? I updated wi-fi drivers and lan drivers to no avail.
    Does anybpdy know where I can find the latest firmware for my ssd also?
    Thanks in advance
    Y

    A DPC WatchDog Violation is most of the times related to a Firmware issue and in windows 8 or 8.1 it is mostly related to A SSD. In your case it is probably both.
    If your laptop came with an SSD(i do not know each laptop model spec) then I recommend you do a factory reset by using the DVD's you burned or by pressing F3 when booting up. A fresh installation should resolve the issue, if not then you have an hardware issue. In that case, I suggest sending the Laptop in for repair.
    If the laptop came without an SSD and you actually purchased your own SSD for it, then You need to update the firmware of the SSD by going to the manufacturers website as well as Reinstalling windows using the DVD's you created. If this does not solve the issue, then you need to test the laptop with the standard HDD it came with(including a fresh installation), if the issue is not resolved then either, Just like the above option, you need to send the laptop in for repair.

    Any help .... :@

    Hey Stu,
    Same here. First I was under iOS 8.0.0, brand new 6 plus. Reminders had the same problem: I can't add any task and can't add a new page, can't change the name of the blank page I have in front of me, my reminders are not synced with the computer.
    The only thing I can do is clic on the alarm icon (half-hidden) and when I do it's also blank and I can't add anything, Siri can't either.
    I tried updating to iOS 8.0.2, I tried turning on off the phone, turing on/off the sync with iCloud, restarting the app... Nothing worked.
    I added a screen shot of both the only screens I can see (in french, but "Nouvelle liste" means "New list" and "Programmé" means "Scheduled" so you should recognise the screens).

  • My computer temperatures.. are normal? Ge70 2pe Apache pro

    Well, on my room the temperature is around 25-26 degrees, around 70% humidity.
    When I start the pc , it is around 36. But, after 2-3 minutes. Without do anything, it´s always on 44 (cpu)
    Is that normal? >< the computer have only 1 month so it´s practically new!
    also.. playing any kind of game.. the laptop goes to 88 degrees. With almost all the games , and the gpu to 89 , but when I change to "office" mode, where the cpu works only at 1,35 GHZ then the temperature is lower.. but, the games are almost impossible to play >A<
    Well , I played a lot with the computer in the last month.. with high temperatures. I hope that I didn´t break the laptop ><
    Oh , last question. If the laptop stop working for the temperatures , i mean, if I break the gpu just for play . MSi guarantee will give me a new computer?
    SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH . I KNOW I AM BAD AT IT PLEASE DONT BE RUDE

    Quote from: runningman on 15-June-15, 13:01:24
    Hi, the temperature behavior is normal.
    90 degree is normal under gaming.
    As for Office mode, it will limit CPU frequency to save more power, so that is also normal.
    And if you don't disassemble the case and use the laptop with normal behavior, I think MSI would provide the free repair within your warranty period.
    wow thanks , i was worried with it , so 90 degrees... are normal. yay, I can play again on ultra! XD . I was playing everything on the lowest settings 1600x900 and "office" mode just to dont be over 70 ^^;
