    Hello, I installed a HP M4000m and modified the Quadro Driver. Card works in SG-Mode but stuck at 405mhz. I also tried everything in the Nvidia driver. Nothing changed. And also tried the Dell VBios.
    What could be the problem? maybe a wrong section in the driver?

    I just re-read your card. I don't have the M4000m.

    I have the K4000M.
