What is this slot? (MSI GX620)

Hi all,
I'm a new user of GX620. I just got it and as always looked around new toy.
On the bottom of laptop (front, just under 3 LEDs) there is a slot with a size of a letter stamp, covered.
I opened it and its empty.
What is this slot? What is the purpose?
Best Regards,
Wojtas

Could be for the memory. Did they put a VOID WARRANTY IF REMOVED sticker on it?

What is this slot? DV7 series notebook

I have a HP Pavilion dv7-3060us Windows 7 64 bit system: under the 2nd hard drive cover near the graphics chip and little battery there is a slot looks almost like a PCI slot or something. Can anyone tell me what this is for or what can be plugged into it?

Hi,
You're welcome
HP does not offer a graphics chip upgrade and I would strongly suspect the Bios has a 'whitelist' of what hardware can connect to this slot.

What kind of slot is this?

Good morning. I've got an ENVY 17-k100nl and I'd like to add an SSD.
The manual says:
- Support M.2 SATA Storage (Port0)
- Internal card: One 2280 M.2 slot for SSD
So, to be sure I disassembled it and found this slot:
The slot's width is 22 mm, there are 29 + 4 pins.
What kind of SSD should I buy? I'm very confused about all these M.2 form factors.
Thank you!
This question was solved.

Hi,
My suggestion: look at the specs of the model in my previous reply and buy the same one or at least same specs. Looks like it has B key as shows in its model. The following image is from my loan Envy 17t-kxxx machine, only 1 day old.
Regards.

MSI GX620 Cooling Problems

hello everyone!
i bought my MSI GX620 notebook at christmas and till now everything worked really fine. about a week ago i noticed that games,after running about 15-20 minutes, start to run slower, feels like fps would drop around 20. my first thought was the vents got too much dust, so i removed carefully the back of the notebook, so i could clean the vent a bit, but still, i got the same issues. i checked with Everest, the GPU temp is 65°C (149 °F), the CPU temp is 55°C (131°F) while doing just simple browsing. this i think is just fine. but when i start any game ( with low PC requirements too ) the GPU has 91°C and the CPU is 80°C and the framerates just drop after 15-20 mins from about 60-100 to 10-20fps. and that just started some days, maybe a week ago.
can anyone tell me what should i do or try?
thanks , and sorry for my bad english

I've been having the same problem with my GX630. The thing must be really clogged because it gets extremely hot after about five minutes of moderate graphics gaming and slows to a chugging crawl. I'm assuming that the plate on the bottom of your machine is the same as on the GX630, and is pretty large with a little indent for where it's supposed to come off. Did you manage to do this?
I took out all the screws and tried to pry it open but gave up for fear of breaking the whole dang thing.
Anyone have experience doing this?

MSI GX620 - can't turn on HDMI output

Hi,
I have MSI GX620 with HDMI output, and Benq G2420HDB monitor with DVI input. I bought HDMI-to-DVI cable, but when I connect it between the laptop and monitor, monitor recognizes that it has been connected to DVI (it shows the message), but it also says that there is no signal, and turns off.
When I try analog laptop output, everything's working perfectly, I have the picture on the screen.
It seems that there is no signal on HDMI output. Do I need to turn it on somehow or what?
Thanks.

So I just came back from a friend who also has a DVI monitor. The same situation there - when I plug it on my cable and laptop, nothing happens...
So, we decided to try installing the latest graphic card drivers... I went to msi site, and the closest thing I could find to my 64-bit Windows 7 were drivers for 32-bit Windows 7. I tried installing them, but they wouldn't install, because they are strictly built for 32-bit Windows version.
The next step was to go to nVidia site and try looking there. We found 64-bit Windows 7 drivers, installed them, but the situation is the same - still nothing happens on plugging in the DVI monitor...
So, my guess is:
1. I need 64-bit Windows 7 drivers for my graphic card but from from the msi site, because these drivers (when they come out) will probably support hdmi output, unlike regular 64-bit Windows 7 drivers from nVidia's site (do you think this makes sense?)
2. HDMI is simply not working.
I forgot to mention that up to installing graphic card drivers today, I've had regular graphic drivers which Windows 7 automatically installed. So, maybe they didn't support hdmi, because they didn't come from msi's site (the same goes for the drivers I just installed - they came from nVidia's site, as I previously mentioned).
What do you think? Thanks.

Hi,
I have xp, I installed the chipset and the system control manager but the eco funtion doesn't work although the turbo funtion works.
thanks.-
In some notebook models, ECO is supported in Vista only.
Also ECO can be activated only when notebook is running at battery.{without AC}
However you can simply apply "max power saving" from power scheme will has the same effect.

MSI GX620 - After XP installation, reactivate SATA

Hi,
I have installed Windows XP on my notebook MSI GX620-20FR
http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=135&prod_no=1529
and I want reactivate SATA in BIOS (the reactivation causes a crach system in start up, I think, because xp not found the appropriate driver).
What can I do?
Is there drivers or ... ?
Any advice is welcome.
Thank you very much.

MSI GX620 RAM Frequency

What is the maximum RAM frequency of MSI GX620? i already have an 4GB ram with only 332MHZ

From your manual...

Technology: DDR2 800/1066MHz

Msi gx620 with intel core 2 duo , 2.0ghz, 800 mhz and 2 M cache ????

So this local store is going to get me an MSI GX620 with 2.0 ghz proccessor. It should be available in 3 days.
From what i know, this is supposed to be the Gx 620-018 with the P7350 core 2 duo proccessor because that's the only 2.0 ghz MSI gx620.
BUT the printed paper that has the laptop specifications, which the store clerk gave me, says:
intel core 2 duo , 2.0 ghz , 800 mhz, 2 M cache (does not mention the processor series name...)
bUT THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE because the P7350 has 3 M cache memory and more than 800 mhz...
IT also says that the ram memory is 3gb, which i know it's supposed to be 4 gb.
I'm confused...could it be a rip off, or just a stupid mis-print and wrong info about the the laptop specs from the store clerk???
Thanks!

This is a user-to-user forum, nobody here works for MSI (that includes moderators and administrators).
What exactly do you expect us to do? We do not know in which region you live, we do not know the store you have ordered the GX620 in, we do not know where the store is getting the GX620 from (certainly not from MSI, but from another reseller or a distributor (which we don't know) and we do not know the origin and the author of the piece of paper you got in that store nor can we be sure that the info on it is trustworthy. This is a long list of uncertainities for starters. All the GX620 that I have seen here come with a P7350, however, that does not mean, that in your area, this has to be the case as well. Consequently, the only save way (without speculation involved) is to check the notebook itself as soon as it gets to the store. Without further information we cannot tell you anything else.

I wonder who can???
The store should be able to call its reseller/distributor to check the specs of the GX620 they ordered. If they are unable or unwilling to do that even though the information on the piece of paper they(!) gave you raises valid questions, the problem you have is obviously with the store, not with us here. The specifications sheet for a particular notebook model in a particular part of the world should include the exact model name of the processor. If that is not that case, somebody (the store, the reseller or the distributor) forgot to do its homework and if that was the case, how can anyone in here make up for that? You could call an MSI distributor in your country to find out what variants of the GX620 they are putting on the market in your region. However, this is still not as informative as starting the notebook to check directly.
I don't really get what you are so mad about. You ordered a notebook in a store that is unable to provide you with accurate information about the product it is trying to sell you. That us not exactly a very understandable reason to get upset in here, just because we can't verify the info you got either.

What is this black dot on the side of my MacBook Pro? What is it for? How do I get to it?

I have a MacBook Pro (2011 Model & 13") and I was wondering . . . What is this black dot on the side of my MacBook Pro? What is it for and how do I get to it?
P.S. I feel stupid asking this question . . .. . because I know those who answer will know exactly about it and what to do with it . .

To be honest when I first got it, I thought I broke that hole . . . see I assumed it was a button to eject the CD slot, and I managed to either push it in deep enough, or smash it off. . .. . I once got a tooth pick and fiddled around in there in atempt to find something. . ..
