My left GPU ventilation fan broken down (decrease in RPM). Called Dell and they only can deliver the replacement on last Sunday but the problem is my flight was on last Sunday.
So here am I at Egypt with defective fan. GPU 1 107 degree but GPU 2 65 degree during full load.  |

For M17x-R1 or any model that had issue with Nvidia 285.63 WHQL driver, kindly download this .inf file and follow the instruction below;
QUOTE Guys with the M17x and 280M GPUs, i modded the inf files so you can take advantage of these drivers too, enjoy. Follow these steps: Download the 285.62 drivers to your Desktop(or wherever you want) Double click and let them extract the files in the default directory (C:\NVIDIA) download my attached archive and extract the two files cut/copy them and paste in "C:\NVIDIA\DisplayDriver\285.62\WinVista_Win7_64\International\Display.Driver And replace originals" Go back to the "International" folder and run setup.exe continue performing normal installation steps, choosing Custom(Advanced)>Next>and check Perform a clean installation>Next and at the windows prompt choose Install...anyway Reboot when prompted and voila Don't forget to reenable SLi in nVIDIA control Panel Cheers QUOTE Download .inf file @ http://forum.notebookreview.com/attachment...285.62_infs.zip |

I am given 7 days of holiday, prolly 80% will be use for BF3 QUOTE(julchin_09 @ Nov 3 2011, 02:29 PM) Yays. Hopefully they release them all here too +1.I was thinking of skipping DirectX11 card and aim for DirectX12, but its no news whatsoever regarding that matter. Hell, Dx11 also not fully utilized and become mainstream yet. |
