Y410p, Y510p: SLI is not working in Win 8.1

QuestionWindows 8.1 is now available.  With the latest Nvidia drivers for 8.1 x64, SLI is not an option.  There are various suggestions to roll back to earlier (or earliest) Nvidia drivers for a solution.  It is true, that with these drivers, SLI is now an option - and it is possible to set it to Enabled. However, it doesn't work.
I have 8.0 and 8.1 in dual boot, for easy comparison.  SLI in 8.0 - clearly working... great performance.
SLI in 8.1 - not SLI performance, and in GPU-Z, it is clearly shown that one GPU is not under any load (also, not getting hot... further evidence).
At the moment, I have to use the 8.0 install only for gaming.  Can someone please tell me -
1. Is 8.1 currently supported for the Y510p
2. If so, when can we expect drivers for SLI
3. Has anyone found a good workaround?
AnswerAfter updating to Windows 8.1 and related Nvidia graphic card drivers, customers may experience the following symptoms
-          Second graphic card is not detected or SLI is disabled
-          Nvidia panel indicates only one graphic card instead of two
-          Can install the graphic card driver but SLI is not working
-          SLI is enabled with legacy drivers but performance drops
You need to update vBIOS (video BIOS) which Lenovo just released it on 29 Oct 2013.
IdeaPad Y410p, Y510p:
NVIDIA GeForce GT750M Second VGA BIOS Update for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) - IdeaPad Y410p, Y510p
NVIDIA GeForce GT755M Second VGA BIOS Update for Windows 8.1 (64-bit) - IdeaPad Y410p, Y510p
Attention: Do not power off or restart your computer during the VBIOS flashing process, which will cause serious damage and improper functioning of your computer.
For Y400 and Y500 vBIOS, please check out this knowledge based article for more info.

So I got off from talking with Lenovo Rep. I also wanna get the y410p with sli. He/She seemed kinda slow... but oh well.You have been connected to ^Sirish Tallapragada.
Thank you for contacting Lenovo Sales Chat. My name is Sirish. My rep id is 2900713381. Happy to help you today.
Hi I am interested in purchasing the y410p either with nvidia 750m or 755m sli. Do you have any idea when they are releasing the ultrabay graphics modules for these? They already have the ultrabay 650m for the y400s so I'm guessing you guys will continue the trend.
Yes, We have that machine.
Yes, but they only have one graphics card in it. Is there an ultrabay module for the y410p's?
on the site, its called sli, like the y510p's do
The Y410p is available with the GT750m and the GT755m
Yes I know, but there is an ultrabay slot in the Y410p.
Which can be used to put in another gt750m/gt755m graphics card. This can be done on Y510p via putting this in: (I gave the link for the ultrabay 750m for y510p/y500)
will this option be available for the Y410p is my question
Okay
Will lenovo release the card I mentioned above that fits the y410p? The current one only fits the y510p
The link that you gave is for Y510p
I know.
Will you release a similar model that fits the y410p?
Yes, We will do that.
That might be available next month
Ok, great, I am looking forward it as a Christmas present. Thanks, that's all my concerns for today
I've heard other forums saying that they keep on saying in on month but I don't trust lenovo anymo....

    Hello and welcome to the forum,
    About which version of Captivate you are talking? Did you run Captivate as
    administrator? If you are still using Captivate 4 there are issues with
    Win7 64-bit, and several threads in this forum. But first tell which
    version you are using.

  • Amd video drivers not working after win 10 upgrade

    AMD video drivers not working after win 10 install. running on microsoft basic driver, call hp smartfriend assistance. appearently there is a fix but hp will not help unless i pay 100.00$ US because the warranty has expired on my notebook.Have a pavilion dv7 was running AMD Mobility Radeon HD5000 series. Thank you hp will not be purchasing an hp product again.  Alienware here i come.

    Not much we can do since your model is not supported by Toshiba for Win 10 upgrade according to THIS list so there is no Win 10 driver for your TouchPad. That button, however, is not the only way to disable/enable the TouchPad.  FN+F9 does it and you can fix it where, when you plug in an external mouse, it will automatically be disabled.

  • Tecra M10-10z - 3G does not work after Win 7 installation

    Tecra M10-10z I have installed Windows 7 pro 64bit
    Everything is configured correctly, but connection 3G does not work: the message is " no network"
    with Windows XP is ok.
    I did not find firmware updates or similar.
    Is there someone who can help me?
    tks

    Hi
    In order to use the 3G you should firstly check if the 3G ericsson module was properly installed.
    In case there is an yellow exclamation mark visible in the device manager, the 3G driver should be reinstalled.
    I found on the Toshiba EU driver page:
    [Ericsson 3G Win 7 driver|http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory =2&selFamily=5&selSeries=148&selProduct=813&selSho rtMod=null&language=13&selOS=30&selType=295&yearup load=&monthupload=&dayupload=&useDate=null&mode=al lMachines&search=&action=search&macId=&country=all &selectedLanguage=13&type=295&page=1&ID=71930&OSID =-1&driverLanguage=42]
    Furthermore ensure that the 3G RF Power Control Utility has been installed properly.
    The 3G RF Power Control Utility" activates your 3G on startup.
    This tool can be found here:
    [3G RF Power Control Utility for Win 7 64bit|http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_driver_details.jsp?service=EU&selCategory =2&selFamily=5&selSeries=148&selProduct=813&selSho rtMod=null&language=13&selOS=30&selType=322&yearup load=&monthupload=&dayupload=&useDate=null&mode=al lMachines&search=&action=search&macId=&country=all &selectedLanguage=13&type=322&page=1&ID=73658&OSID =-1&driverLanguage=42]
    Hope the 3G network would functions after the reinstallation of both tools.

  • Print Spooler does not work after Win 8.1 install

    I upgraded several computers to Win 8.1.  Most are operating normally and do not have this problem.  This is relevant to show that it is not a printer hardware or compatibility problem.  On one computer, the print function is not working. 
    I've tried reinstalling printers, getting new drivers, etc.  It comes down to this.  An active (connected) printer is selected and print test page is selected.  The dialog box says that the print queue is full.  I went to the queue subdirectory
    and deleted all files, no change to the results.  The Print spooler is active in task manager.  Stopping and restarting the print spooler makes no difference.  Any ideas?

    I had similar problems with HP Printers on the LAN (after upgrade from Windows 8 tot 8.1 
    32bit)
    HP Laserjet 4000  Laserjet 4050 and Laserjet 4250 - all with Network interface.
    Erratic behaviour: inserting blank pages, no duplex printing, programs stalling when printing etc…
    Printers and network are fully functional and work perfectly with W7 and XP. Not with Windows 8.1.
    Strange thing: Epson Aculaser and Ricoh Aficio 3224  worked fine but those were installed after the Windows update.
    So definitely something with the Microsoft drivers for the HP Laserjet printers.
    After a few installs and uninstalls of the HP printer drivers the problems stayed.
    Then I removed all HP related driver files (C:\\Windows\\system32\\spool\\PRINTERS")
    and all references in the Register because the standard uninstall of the drivers did not remove all files.
    -> First uninstall ALL  HP printers (laserjet, deskjet, officejet etc ..)
    -> Then look in
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Drivers]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows NT x86\Print Processors]
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers]
    Make a backup of the registry keys and then remove all files starting with hp….
    Remove the print processors starting with hp 
    (i.e. hpzpplhn.exe)
    Then restart your system.
    Reinstall the printers, they should be OK now.
    If you still have duplex printing problems : replace the hpzpplhm print processor with the winprint processor. (may give other limitations, google for more info).
    In my case this solved the erratic printing problems.

  • Speakers on monitor do not work with Win 8.1

    Yesterday I upgraded from Win X - SP 3 (discontinued by Microsoft)  to Win 8.1.  I spent the entire day with a Microsoft technition on-line to figure out how all this works.  One thing he could not get to work was the speakers on my monitor (HP vs 19c). He took over control of my computer to work out the various issues.   I know he went to Realtec to try to find a driver for the speakers but without luck.  The speakers worked before, why don't they work with Win 8.1.  The monitor works fine.  Unfortunately without sound I cannot go through the tutorials to learn more about how to use Win 8.1.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Thank you so very much.  I installed the driver for Win 8.1 but that apparently was not the problem.  Please forgive me for being so dense.  On control panel I kept seeing the problem  as not having the speakers plugged in.  The other day I unplugged to wire going to the computer and re-plugged it, but that did not work.  This morning I unplugged the speaker wire  from both ends - the computer as well as the monitor and replugged it.  Surprise, I now have audio!!
    What a relief as now I can go through the tutorials and learn how Win 8.1 works though I have already learned a lot by hit or miss.

  • Knowledge Search not working in Win client

    hi there
    i have a problem with knowledge search not working in IC Win Client in CRM version 5.0
    i guess the problem is with the workspace that is IIA for solution search that is assigned against the knowledge search
    please tell what should i do as right now when i am trying to execute it or open the knowledge search dump is coming  stating null object referenced
    i wonder what could be the solution
    best regards
    ashish

    Hello ashish,
    I had that problem too. You have to apply note 1002299 to restore missing configurations in SAF.
    Also, if you worked with IIA in previous versions, take a look at note 656321 to check it's evolution (replacement by SAF).
    Good luck and Kind regards,
