MSI GE60 0NC Problems After Upgrade

Hi,
Recently downgraded my MSI GE60 0NC from Windows 8 to Windows 7. Had some issues with the wireless connectivity. I then flashed the laptop to Windows 7 EC controllers. It was then working after this. I then purchased a Samsung 840 Pro SSD 512GB and Corsair Vengeance 16GB. After installing the SSD I then proceeded to do a fresh install of Windows 7. After downloading the wireless drivers I am being told that the drivers may be out dated. I dont understand what the issue is as the did the exact same procedure as before.
Can anyone help me out please as the laptop is useless at the moment

Thanks for the reply, check the first thing i wrote, i explained it a bit, also check the screenshot. I think that could be the problem, but im not that good with laptops so im not sure.. "MSI suite" cant find my motherboard so the program wont execute..
edit: i've already tried the SCM that you linked, i get some errors with net framework so it wont execute after the setup..

GE60 0NC-006US Webcam not working after Win8 upgrade or BIOS update

So, I upgraded my GE60 to Windows 8 a couple of weeks back and decided to install Skype this past weekend. Upon opening Skype, I was told that no webcam could be found. I checked Device Manager and sure enough, no instance of a webcam or driverless device was detected. Now, I did apply the newest BIOS just before upgrading so I assume that could have broken it as well. I followed the BIOS directions given by the instructions provided on the driver page and everything else works. Furthermore, Live Update says I have the most current version. I am wondering what to do next. Should I reapply the BIOS or how can I find out if the laptop even detects the webcam? I mean, not being in Device Manager and even the Devices window, reverting back to 7 probably wouldn't help since Device Manager shows no instance, correct?

Thank you Svet for all of your help. I relayed my issue/resolution here at work and they're all getting a luagh out of it.

Time to upgrade processor?

Upgraded HD to 250 GB, added DVD read write now I need to upgrade processor. Help. Have had G4 since late 2001. Absolutly no problems. Have kept software updated also. Would like to upgrade to new OS Leopard but processor speed only 800mhz, need more. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Budget allows about $400 dollars. Also with a processor upgrade can I increase ram? Right now Im maxed at 1.5g
Thanks Joey

Hi-
Welcome to Discussions!
For $400 you can bump the speed of your processor a lot, and give yourself a "new" machine:
http://eshop.macsales.com/MyOWC/Upgrades.cfm?model=153&type=Processor&TI=1526&sh oupgrds=Show+Upgrades
The dual 1.6ghz processor upgrades would really bring your machine to life.
If you like games, and other graphic intensive applications, a 7455 based processor upgrade might serve you even better. They max out at about 1.4ghz, but have an L3 cache that really helps the processors work "faster":

http://www.gigadesigns.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=37
Even without moving to Leopard, the speed increase will improve your experience with Tiger, and all the applications that you have.
I, like Tom, am running a processor upgraded G4, and went ahead and ordered Leopard. Power of positive thinking.....
Will be posting results as soon as I receive my copy!

GE60 0NC booting error

Hey guys my GE60 0NC seems te have some kind of issues.
When I boot it and logg in the booting seems to stop at the WiFi connecting.
At that moment I can start a few minor programs but a lot of booting hasnt been finished yet.
To fix this I tried to:
-Systemrepair it to 1 day ago
This seemed to help, I could use it again although it ran a lot slower than normal.
In addition some programs seem to have some error, for instance League of Legends won't boot.
However when I shut it down and rebooted it again I was back to the same booting error.
What could be the problem here?
Thank you very much for your time.
Olav

I've been having the same problem for over a week (MSI GE60 - i5-3210M, 6GB RAM and GT650M; bought a bit over a year ago).
It started with a normal boot, but when I logged into my account I couldn't start any programs for 5-10 minutes. My S-Bar also stopped responding and crashed.
At first I suspected malware/virus, and actually found some shady files that I deleted with Malwarebytes Anti Malware.
The problem was still there though, so I did a system restore (I couldn't go back more than a few days) and that seemed to fix the problem - but after a reboot it was back.
I could find some errors, like the one you linked, in the Event Viewer - but also alot of Information-events from NvStreamSvc (several every sec) which is a part of Nvidia.
So today I uninstalled GeForce-experience (couldn't launch it apparently, got some error) and then installed an older display driver 310.90.
I also reinstalled my S-Bar and now it seems like I run pretty decent. The WiFi-logo has gone back to normal and I can start up programs early after a boot.
You could also try and uninstall some recent Windows Updates - I'm not sure if they're involved, but you could always give it a try.
Hopefully this helps you, or someone else, in some way.

Please help upgrade processor S10

I have a lenovo s10 . can i upgrade processor from atom N270 to intel dual core 2GHZ ????
it is not danger may net book ????

Hi,
impossible mission...
hardsoldered cpu... size...power consumption..
thats a netbook not a notebook...
most "books" are not designed to upgrade ... its not a pc, where you can easy change parts (also limited intel/amd/via not compatible) (heatspreader,powerful psu.)...
many thing depends on each other...heat consumption (cooling system) power consumption...
chipset...grafics...
so the only things you can upgrade , and thats easy in case of S10 ... memory up to 2GB, harddrive (or SSD) up to 500GB (or more but bigger harddrive didnt see now) ... and with a little more experience faster wireless card (n) or bluetooth modul...
sincerely KalvinKlein

EFI support on GE60 0NC (bought with freedos)

Hello!
I bought MSI GE60 0NC (with FreeDOS preinstalled, too save some money for unneded Windows) few days ago.
Unfortunately, I discovered that it's BIOS lacks EFI/UEFI support. At least, it is no any UEFI/SecureBoot related items neither in Setup Dialog (activated by DEL) nor in Boot Manager (by F11).
Moreover, When I try to boot from USB flash stick (with unpacked EFI directory, and even with Shell.efi in the root) laptop says Quote
This is not a bootable disk. Insert a bootable floppy and press any key
When I trying to do the same from SD card in cardreader — laptop just silently proceeds to boot system from HDD.
But, at the same time, dmidecode under Linux says:
Quote
note ~ % dmidecode | grep EFI
UEFI is supported
in BIOS section.
So, is it any way to get EFI working here? :'(

Quote from: darkhawk on 29-August-13, 10:23:03
UEFI doesn't really provide anything for these laptops.....
Fast boot? Needless for bootloaders? At least, it is my point, why I want to get UEFI here.

Looking for an 802.11AC Wifi adapter for MSI GE60-0NC

I want to buy an 802.11AC Wifi module for my MSI GE60-0NC to replace the 802.11N adapter it ships with. It must be compatible with windows 8.1 (as the one it shipped with has serious issues unless I disable N and run it as a G adapter). Do not want to use an external USB adapter either. Is there a compatibility list somewhere or does anyone know of an adapter which will suit these requirements?

For my GE60-2OC i bought an Intel Centrino Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 + Bluetooth, it works perfectly.
this card need 2 antenas, (there is 2 antenas in the GE60), and just download the drivers and install Intel drivers.

Unlock BIOS for MSI GE60 0NC

Hi Svet!
I want to unlock BIOS of my MSI GE60 0NC . (You have already helped me recently in other threads as well )
- bios is: w8_E16GAIMS.514
- firmware is: w8_16GAEMS1.505
I need the following features:
- set the CPU voltage for the different states
- set the GPU (nVidia) voltage for the different states
- to be able to set the fan level (like you did here : https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=168727.0 ) for the different states
The goal is that I can have a quite laptop (thanks to undervolting and modified fan speeds).
What else can I get? (just send me a PM, if it's better for you)
Thank You!
Kris

unclock BIOS: can be done
CPU voltage setting: not possible
GPU voltage setting: bios can't control dedicard vga, also no voltage is possible by bios
FAN control: not possible by BIOS, but via EC. and would be static[not changeble on the fly
Hi Svet!
- gpu thing is not important: I can do it with nvidiainspector (not lower the voltages, of course, but setting a lower power state)
1. - fan control: what're your recommend settings for this? (the goal is a silent laptop, as far as possible) I thought about that the lowest fan speed would be good around 72 Celsius. What do you think?
Right now, with the official bios and with Turbo disabled on the CPU via OS, if I see a movie with MPC-HC + MadVR (highest settings, which uses a lot of dGPU) the CPU temp is around 63 Celsius (of course in this case the fan isn't working on the lowest state)
2. - cpu voltage setting: well, I'm not happy Can you do that I could set the voltages through a program, like ThrottleStop? (Right now it's not working.)
(I'm using CPUGenie for this purpose on my old MSI GX620 )
3. - what other settings will be appear in the unlocked bios?
Thanks!

MSI GE60 0NC-622UK and Windows 8.1 secondary HDD sleep bug

Hi All!
I'm struggling with this problem for a long time now. (MSI GE60 0NC-622UK, OS: Windows 8.1, BIOS: 5.14)
There're similar topics on the net:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/58ae1ed5-c643-41ba-95ec-ffa5fbed16af/win-8-keeps-to-shut-down-my-hdds-why?forum=W8ITProPreRel
http://www.eightforums.com/drivers-hardware/4710-secondary-hard-drive-goes-sleep.html
I bought an 256GB SSD in it, so the 750GB HDD is now the secondary one. And the problem is, no matter what I set in Advanced Power Options (never, 0, 600) the OS always puts the hdd into sleep after around 10 seconds (the original windows 8.0 also did the same). The problem is with this the I HAVE to wait couple of seconds when the hdd spins up next time! :(
Only this one helped: http://lytondarque.com/2013/03/29/prevent-hd-sleep-in-windows-8/
It's a small utility called KeepAliveHD (I could only install the v1.4.1 version, but it's working fine.)
So I'm curious is there any other solution beside using an external utility.
Thanks for helping!

Power Consumption
The Western Digital Scorpio Blue 750GB actually does okay in power consumption compared to competitors. Its read/write and startup draw numbers are in line with competitors; its idle numbers and random read are noticeably lower. The observed differences are unlikely to make a noticeable impact on battery life. It is worthwhile to note that during our tests when running as a secondary drive the power management seemed overactive in that it would frequently initiate its sleep mode. When this happened the drive would park its head and spin down after only a few seconds.
I think the problem is inherent in the design of the drive. The only way around it is by using a program like you have mentioned, unfortunately.

MSI GE60 0NC SSD

Hi,
Is it possible to remove the normal HDD from a MSI GE60 0NC and replace it with an SSD like a Samsung 830 256GB SSD?

Yes you can i did the same with my GT60 onc also changed the HDD for a SSD so think that with your comp it should'nt be a problem.

HP Pavilion dv7t-7000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC - Upgrade Processor

Hello,
Any help would be appreciated.
I have an HP Pavilion dv7t-7000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC. Because of a new job I need to update my processor from the current 2.30 GHz (see exact specs below, please) to at least 3.0 GHz.
Is there a 3.0GHz processor out there that is compatible with this particular computer? I've called technical support and was told they don't know. I really don't know who else to ask.
This computer was just purchased a few months ago (before I got the new job). I would really like to avoid purchasing a new computer, if at all possible, if I can upgrade the processor in this one.
Here are the specs of the current processor:
Intel Core i7 3610QM
Code Name   Ivy Bridge
Package   Socket 988B rPGA
Technology   22nm
Specification   Intel Core i7-3610QM CPU @ 2.30GHz
Thanks in advance.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Well, there appears to be just one (that I've found) 3.0 GHz processor that Intel makes for my chipset (HM77 Express Chipset) and it's the i7-3940XM Extreme edition (http://ark.intel.com/products/71096/)
At a retail price of $1,000+ it looks like I'm going shopping for a new computer.
Not sure if anyone from HP read the peer forums, however, I will not be purchasing another HP product.
This machine has had issues outside of me needing to upgrade the processor for my own personal reasons. Your support is grossly lacking in all areas Your techscannot even pull up the model number with the serial number.
Customers should not have to go out on the Internet to research questions like this.
