    edit, figured it out it does not have a bios, so i had to make an bios with the vbios inside,
    so this is a modded bios with the vbios for the gt 330m mxm 2 card

    @raserdk suprised you bothered - after all, it performs almost the same as hassle-free GT240M, only slightly better.

    i got it dirt cheap thats why, ;)
    next project is to get a asus gts 360 working it, and another mb with DDR3 ram in instead of DDR2
    and another cpu and more cooling lets how this works out, :p

    i remember back in the day where mxm cards were extreemly expensive, now not so much ;)
