QUOTE(AiSheep @ May 3 2013, 02:14 AM) Yup, of course you need to backup bios before proceed :3 Since flash mod-bios and flash backup bios (your original bios) is the same. Same as the ultrabay gpu, you can flash back. It's the same. BUT! Please place back your default wifi-card if you change it. If not will cause error due white-list. NEVER EVER lose your backup bios because it contains all laptop documents, windows 8 product key, etc. Niceee. Thank you! I wont oc much, maybe just wanna "un-throttle" the gpu.

QUOTE(mengfart @ May 3 2013, 02:31 AM) masterz_man How long did you take to deal with that seller ? He don't reply message either in LYN or FB.. = = SMS him. I msg him, he replied straight away. QUOTE(AiSheep @ May 3 2013, 11:29 AM) Once you mod your bios, you need throttle stop (an application from tech inferno) then untick pdprochot then ok already :3 i think next time need to apply thermal paste (good ones) pretty soon although some people said it's doable :/ I see. Alright. Still thinking about installing the modded bios tho. I just want to stop throttling. I dunno if its worth it.

QUOTE(efariz @ May 8 2013, 07:49 PM) Greetings to all Y400/Y500 users, i'm thinking to upgrade the Wifi card to Dual-Band Wifi card..anyone have done it?? i ask few technician/expert about this & they said : » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « "Please do take note that Lenovo Y400 require WLAN card with security code in the firmware & the require model number must be listed in the BIOS. Unfortunately neither Intel Wireless Ultimate N6300 or Intel Wireless Advance N6235 is NOT LISTED in the Y400 BIOS so you will have to either :-
A. Install a BIOS that is updated with the require model. B. Install a circumvented/modified BIOS which bypass the security check.
Most Lenovo laptops comes with a security feature which will only allow WLAN cards with security code in it's firmware & models listed in the laptop BIOS to prevent data theft (eg snooping). This is an important feature for business user but some non-business users see this as non-upgrade friendly so they normally flash the laptop BIOS with a 3rd party updated BIOS or unlocked/bypass/modified BIOS.
If you install a 3rd party BIOS with updated WLAN models, you will retain the security function but you will still need the respective WLAN card with the security code in the firmware aka LENOVO approved version. However if you install an unlocked/bypass/modified BIOS, you basically remove/disable the security function so you should get the generic version which can also be use on Dell, Acer, Sony etc." My current Wifi Card : Atheros AR9485 WB-EG link.. Upgrade to : Intel Wireless Advance N-6235 (Dual-Band with Bluetooth 4.0) link.. Was thinking of changing the wifi card too. How much is the intel wifi card anyway?

QUOTE(Lil Kiasu @ May 9 2013, 11:06 PM) Come play online against me...  Add me up in Autolog @ Lil_Kiasu I suggest getting GTA EFLB. Certain forums outside report it runs better than 4... I'm still scratching my head on making a workaround for it to start like how it did back when I was using Win7 . U mean the start button & start to desktop?

QUOTE(Lil Kiasu @ May 10 2013, 12:32 AM) No, I mean the game... Try Googling for GTA 4 issues on Win8... The solution offered worked for me periodically... Basically you're required to update GFWL and RSGC but some hiccups may still occur. Oh. I didn't install GTA 4. Played GTA 3 before though. QUOTE(xyz_cityhunter @ May 10 2013, 10:36 AM) Hm, anyone here tried this combo: mSata SSD + Sata3 SSD and Sata2 HDD with caddy on Y580? Is the caddy available in Malaysia yet?

QUOTE(AiSheep @ May 18 2013, 04:23 PM) I don't have DoTA 2 but it should have SLi profile for it. Since 310.XX got already. otherwise try this Force SLI on games. Nvidia Control Pannel > 3D Settings > Multi-display/mixed-GPU acceleration = Single display performance mode Power Management Mode = Prefer Maximum Performance SLI rendering mode = Force Alternate frame rendering 2 Vertical Sync = Off What did u chose when installing the driver? Clean install or overwrite? I experienced tearing when on SLi for Dota2 only. Other games went smoothly. Btw, what " Force Alternate frame rendering 2" do?
