    I have a Acer aspire 5742 with Intel HD graphics with 4gb of ram, and a i3. I bought a eGPU dock
    ( http://m.gearbest.com/graphics-video-cards/pp_229101.html?wid=21 )
    for it but when I try to boot with it the laptop beeps twice (quickly) then shuts off. I've tried changing the CTD and PTD options and it boots but doesn't show up in device manager.
